Limited capability was created by Blueallblue
I'm getting married later this year.

We both receive limited capability but my partner is saying when we get married only one of us can receive it.

Any help appreciated thank you.

Hi Blueallblue

Yes if you are talking about the Universal Credit LCWRA element then it can only be paid once in a UC couple claim.

Hi Blueallblue

The DWP and also the Council Tax department will look into the further circumstances of a couple who get married and then claim to be single people for Benefits purposes.
