ESA payment for couple was created by Marie
Can someone please tell me how much per week ESA is paid for two people living together though I am not living with anything just got accused as living as a couple I just wondered then how much money the DWP owe me, at the moment I am receiving £190 per fortnightly which was my benefit before being accused of living with someone and still receiving £190 even though the DWP has decided I am living with someone without given us the opportunity to prove our case.
I am on Income support under ill health.
Thanks

The Couples rate for Income Support and Income Related ESA is the same and is currently £113.70 on top of that for ESA you would receive a Component payment for the group (WRAG or Support Group) and possibly additional Premiums dependant on what other benefits you were receiving and whether you placed in the SG or not.
