Income support entitlement when son reaches 18 plus?

[tigerthecat]

I have rec'd a letter from the dwp saying if i have anyone else living in my house who isn't dependent they must pay a financial contribution to the household expenses. He earns one hundred and sixty pounds a week. How will my benefits be effected?

i suppose it depends what benefits you are on i know the housing benefit is reduced if you have non dependants living with you and they look at how much they earn.you should be able to get some information from the benefits websites .

When a non-dependent is over age 18 and their gross pay is between �157 and �203.99, they will take �23.35 off yir weekly benefit. If the gross pay is between �204 and �270.99, they�ll take off �38.20 each week.
