    Being homeless would lose your housing benefit, but shouldn't affect ESA.  Unless you were previously getting SDP?  In that case, you'd lose around £66 a week.

    EESA is an error that used to appear on bank statements.  It's just old style ESA.  If both yourself & partner are over 25 that should be around £6k a year.  Then PIP depends on whether you get standard or enhanced, again not affected by being homeless, but the minimum for standard daily would be around £3500.  So would be expecting £10k+ overall per year.  (Just rough calculations)

    Do you have a list of the PIP & ESA payment names and amounts that you're getting right now?

    EESA is just what they use when paying money into your bank and is still used, mine has always had this next to the payment for the past 10 years. The correct term used is ESA.

    You mention disability premiums and also mention sleeping in a tiny room in someone else's house. Sounds like the SDP has been removed because you're living with other adults. 

    Are you related to the people you're living with? Are they claiming a qualifying disability benefit their self? or regiatered blind?

    The Enhanced disability premium should still be included in the calculation but it's normally known as "disability Income guarantee" on breakdown letters for ESA entitlement.
