No you shouldn't as it deals with what you can do with help not what your carer does for you. If your partner was helping you it maybe beneficial for you to go through your social worker (or get a social worker if you dont have one) and look into what help you need physically, emotionally and financially now he has left. Hope this helps

No you won't lose your pip so don't worry about that but if he's not looking after you he should not get carers allowance for you if he does
