    Morning @rhinos,

    If you post your question in the Ask A Benefits Advisor category (as you have done here), somebody from their team should get back to you soon.

    You can see existing posts in the Ask A Benefits Advisor category here. Hope that helps!

    Hi rhinos,

    Do you live with your partner? What is your situation?
    I ask this because any means-tested benefit entitlement such as Income Support or income-related ESA will take your income and circumstances into account as well before any benefit is paid.
    If you want to elaborate on your/his income and circumstances we will be able to advise more accurately.
