LWC and universal credit as a married couple

I am beyond confused and as an autistic person with little or no information it is causing me major anxiety .
Me and my husband are self employed . I have just got LWC so I don't have a minimum floor but I know I have an amount I can't go over ?
What happened now are we still judged as a couple. If my husband doesn't reach his minimum floor and I earn more than I am allowed does it get sucked up into his minimum floor.
Or will they just treat us as two people instead of couple. I can find no information at all in regards to this situation
They took eight months to realize I am disabled although I repeatedly told them I am autistic so I am finding it hard to trust .
