I created one of the campaign election videos for Labour, and Jeremy Corbyn,
This is a new version of Emeli Sande, Hope "You Are Not Alone

Hi @Pee
As @dogfather rightly says, if your hours are less than 16, and your income is no more than £120 per week, then this can come under the 'permitted work' rules. My only word of warning is that you must be absolutely certain that the work you are doing will not indicate to the DWP that you are fit for work generally (or at least fit for work-related activity) - as if it does the DWP may review your claim on this basis.
As regards your partner moving in, the amount of contributions based benefit you receive will not be altered. If however you receive an income-based top-up including a Severe Disability Premium this will end. You state that your partner is currently out of work, therefore you could apply to have him added onto your ESA claim. This would be an income-based claim that would not affect your contributions based award, but would top it up to reflect the fact that it is supporting a couple not a single person.
Both of these changes are things that you have to report to the DWP in any event.
Hope this helps,
Kind regards,
Mary
l@loobylou84 the quickest way is phone ESA and go through the form IS10 as it can be done over the phone and they can see you get PIP that's what I did when I change from DLA to PIP. Then it will be added to your ESA if your entitled to SDP. All done within weeks.loobylou84 said:Can anyone tell me how long it takes to make a decision about Severe Disability Premium
i have recently been awarded daily living PIP standard rate and was sent the form about SDP
