Would my daughter's partner moving in affect my benefits?

I really need some advice please I receive income support with SDP and carers allowance and PIP . My 2 adult daughters who live with me also receive PIP that's why I'm entitled to SDP one off my daughters is now working but she has asked can her boyfriend move in until they find their own place I've said no but if it will have no affect on what I claim I feel I'm being unreasonable. Does anyone know if it will or could affect me as with the cost of living I can't afford to lose any money, sorry if that sounds selfish but life is a struggle right now, Thank you for any advice you can give me.

    Unless your daughters boyfriend also receives a qualifying disability benefit such as PIP daily living or DLA mid/high rate care then you would lose the SDP.

    Thank you poppy123456 that's what I was thinking, is there a limit on how many days he could stay whilst staying on and off with his other family members.

    No, no limits on how long his stays with you for visits.
