Carer allowance and umemployed partner was created by a7medbadger
Hi,

someone is single and receiving carer allowance so he is exempt from looking for work requirements but he is in a relationship with to someone who is receving JSA and planning to move in to live together.

will that trigger regular interviews with work coaches or she will be exempt like her partner who is receiving carer allowance?

I hope my question makes sense

Hi a7medbadger

The person you mention must be claiming New Style ESA which is contribution based and is not affected by whom you live with.
You do not say which Benefits the other person is receiving in addition to Carer's Allowance?
