Nichopeeko

hello

I live in a 3 bed house with my husband and 18 year old son, we are on universal credit and pip, my 23 year old needs to move back, but I need to know how it will effect our benefits? He will need to look for a full time job as well

Thank you

If the PIP award is either yours or your husband's and it includes the daily living part then there will be no non dependant deductions if your son moves back in.

If the PIP award is your other son's then there will be a non dependant deduction of £85.73/month.

If you're currently affected by the bedroom tax and you have 1 spare bedroom then that will be lifted when your son moves back in.

For council tax reduction all local Authorities have their own rules so I can't advise with that. You will need to make sure you report the changes to them.
