Hi all I'm Brett.can anyone answer my question. I've been told I can claim housing benefit whilst I'm recieving PiP , and my partner is in full time employment, is this true? Thanks

Hi Brett,

If you're eligible for housing benefit (https://www.gov.uk/housing-benefit/eligibility), then you can certainly claim it at the same time as receiving PIP. 

Infact you may be able to get a top-up (called a premium) because you get PIP:
