    Are you claiming  contribution based ESA or  IR ESA?

    If you're claiming Income related ESA then you're partner moving in would affect this. If you're claiming Contribution based ESA then your partner moving in wouldnt affect this. If you're not sure which one you're claiming then it will tell you on a recent award letter, or you can ring DWP and ask.

    Any housing benefit and council tax reduction could be affected too.

    Hi @kiki
    Would your partner be moving in as a carer?
