hi

My boyfriend wants to marry me & he is 85 & I am 73

We are both quite set in our ways, with our own homes & households

If we do get married would I loose all benefits even if we don’t live together?

    Hi @k8westlake and a warm welcome to the community from me!

    No your benefits shouldn't stop as long as you don't move in together and maintain separate, independent households😊
