It will be housing element of UC you are claiming and not housing benefit. There will be no non dependent deductions for UC because your PIP includes the daily living part.

As he’s no longer a student then he will not be disregarded for council tax. If you are the only 2 adults in the house then you will lose the single person discount. I can’t give any further advice about council tax because all local Authorities are different.

Thank you You're reply back One more question would it affect my lcwra With my son living with me

No, LCWRA is because you have a limited capability for work and is part of UC. Non of your UC is affected by your son living with you.
