HI , I am new to this forum and hope somebody will be able to help. I have received letter regarding my contribution based ESA asking to fill in a form for possible income related ESA. I was originally on incapacity benefits and was transferred to ESA in September 2015 without any assessment as I have MS and have been on IB since 2002. It says that you shouldn't apply if your partner is working 24 hours or more. My husband works on 0 contract hour so difficult to say how many hours he works but he makes less than £16000. Should I call them and what difference could it make? I already have top up payment for living expences. Would I be worst off? Completely lost. Any advice please?
