UC Non dependent charge for housing cost

AFB

If i'm receiving PIP should my two brothers who are non dependent be exempt from non dependent charge when claiming Universal credit housing cost. Any information would be helpful.

Thanks

Hi,

If they live with you then for the housing element of UC then you must be claim the daily living award of PIP. If you do, then you'll be excluded from any non dependent deductions. See link.

Hi @poppy123456

So, yes i have put a claim for housing element and I do receive enhanced PIP Daily living. So does that mean no non dependent charges should apply to the claim.
