    Yes, your housing benefit will not have any non dependant deductions. However, if your ESA is Income Related and it includes the Severe disability premium then you will lose this, unless your father either claims a qualifying disability benefit such as PIP/ADP daily living, DLA mid/high rate care or AA or he's registered blind.
