Does anyone know that if I receive ESA Contribution Support Group and move in with a partner will my ESA be affected?

Thanks.

    If I move in with my partner will my ESA (Contribution Support Group) and PIP (Lower Living Rate) be affected?????

    Hi RogerKiln,

    No, absolutely not. PIP is completely unaffected by living with a partner, as is contribution-based ESA. Only income-related benefits are affected and you don't appear to be on any of those.

    Of course if your partner is on income-related benefits you may have to consider the effect of you moving in on those (you may need advice on who claims what). Hope this helps.

    Will
