    Yes you get both. You will have the LCWRA element included in the calculation of your maximum UC amount. The first £293 of your partner’s earnings will be ignored (I infer you are getting the housing element in your UC award).
    Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.
