I got accepted for Severe Disability Premium which means I get more money on my ESA. I was wondering will I still get full housing benefit and council tax benefit since I’m getting more money on my ESA with SDP? Please advise.

The SDP will not affect any other benefits in a bad way and you'll continue to receive what you were receiving before the SDP was added.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -

You say you live with parents, if this is both parents then they will both need to be claiming a qualifying benefit such as PIP daily living or DLA mid/high rate care for you to qualify. No one must also be claiming carers allowance or carers element of universal credit for looking after you.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please.
