Pension Credit and PIP
my mum gets pension credit and PIP and owns her own house. If I move in with her will it affect what she gets. I am in full time employment too.

Hello @Bubbles69
Welcome to the forum!
It likely will do. She may currently get something called the Severe Disability Premium in her Pension Credit. This might stop if you move in with her unless you also get PIP/DLA/AA/ADP
Instead you would become eligible for Carers Allowance but you may not qualify if you work full time.
You could try speaking to Citizens Advice or AgeUK for more help on this.
I hope this helps?

she said she doesn’t get the SDP just standard pension credit and low rate PIP.

she might not realise she does, if she lives alone currently and no one claims carers for her, she would be entitled to it, it's quite a lot of money each month.

Hi @Bubbles69. If she just receives standard pension credit and PIP then you moving in won't affect them.
