I have a client who is claiming ESA having failed to pass the WCA and is appealing.
He gets MC, LM DLA also. His partner claims CA and their ESA takes account of this and gives them carer's premium.
It looks like they would be better off on IS - she as the carer claimant, as then they could get the disability premium.
If she claims, he cant continue to get his IBESA. But he would like to continue the appeal so he can get NI credits.
Can she claim IS without him withdrawing his ESA claim? If he has to withdraw, and is successful at appeal, will he get his NI credits still?
Confused.
