I recently moved in with my fiancé and ESA have totally stopped my payments as they say he can support me. I get Pip and a small pension as I was medically retired. We are now struggling financially. Is there a non means tested benefit I can claim for?

Hi Julesw and welcome
Was your ESA income related ?
Or was it contribution based with an IR top up ?
