RENT

I am renting a property and I receive high rate pip for daily living and enhanced mobility. I also have a carer. If my carer was to move in with me, would my carer need to contribute towards rent? If my carer moved in with me, would my housing benefit be reduced?

How many bedrooms does your home have, and how many are occupied? How much of your rent is currently paid for?

3 bedroom. 2 occupied

You won't see reduced Housing Benefit because you are on Daily Living PIP. This excludes you from non dependant deductions.
Assuming you currently have a 2 bedroom entitlement, you should see that increase to 3.
If on other benefits, do you receive a Severe Disability Premium with any of them?
