Hi id just like some advice please as I seem unable to find the answer anywhere. We recently received a migration notice to switch to UC from Tax Credits. I understand about that as there is a lot of advice and information everywhere. What I can't find the answer to is that I am a full time carer for our son who is on higher rate DLA. Would our AET be that set to of a couple or, as i have read somewhere else, would it be set as that of a single person as only one of us can earn. She would just fall short of the proposed AET changes for a couple.Thank you
