Hi I’m in receipt of ESA and PIP and I am currently splitting with my partner. I wanted to know if I’m entitled to HB and council tax benefit? Thank you.

    Hi @dawnie81 welcome to the community! Sorry to hear what you're currently going through. We have a handy benefits calculator which can give you an idea of what benefits you may be entitled to. As this is just a guideline, I would recommend speaking to tour local CAB for a full benefits check. Let us know if you have any further questions :)

    Hi I’ve just gone through the calculator but I wasn’t sure what the income related ESA benefit was? I’m on ESA in the support group.
