Hi my son (age 22) has voiced he wants to stay over at mine three nights a week,I don’t claim housing benefits as I’m a home owner,however I do get council tax reduction and pip along with esa SDP.
he won’t be a paying lodger and will not eat here either. it’s just my house is handy for catching the bus as father lives out in the country.
I haven’t agreed as yet as wanted to try and get some clarification from anyone that could help me many thanks

Hi there
As far as I am aware that is fine for purpose of benefits
When I enquired about this was told as long as other person can prove they live elsewhere eg postal address pays bills, then there is no issue
To be sure you could contact welfare rights or maybe other members can help -
Thank you for your reply,yes his main residence is his fathers he certainly wouldn’t be contributing to my household I just wanted to check and make double sure,as it was worrying me ?

As long as your son normally resides elsewhere it isn't a problemInformation I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.

Do I have to inform anyone or is it okay ?
-
No you dont have to inform anyone
-
thank you so very much these things nearly drove me insane I really appreciate that ?
