ESA contribution based. Could this be affected by my partner becoming self employed?

Butterfliess

Hi,
I receive ESA contribution based and my partner currently works PAYE. My partner is due to switch jobs soon and is going to be self employed. I have been told this still does not effect my entitlement to my current ESA. Just wanted to double check if that was correct?

I know that my partners income does not effect it currently as it’s contribution based but wondering if being self employed changes that?

Many Thanks ☺️

Self employed earnings are no different to PAYE, they both don't affect the amount of CB ESA you're entitled to because it's not means tested.

I thought that was the case but wanted to double check. Thanks again ☺️
