    Hi there. Will a lodger effect my Universal Credit? I have just migrated over from ESA. I was in the support group. I pay a mortgage but don’t claim mortgage support. I will not be able to live without PIP and LWC. Trying to find a solution to this dire situation. I wouldn’t be related to them.

    Hi,

    This is one situation where UC is actually better than legacy benefits were. Taking in a lodger does not affect UC. The rent you get from them is not counted as income.

    Fit notes aren't being scrapped.

    The WCA assessment is likely to be scrapped. And we will only have the PIP assessment instead. But that isn't set in stone yet, and it is more than 3 years away.
