    Hey all,

    I'm just wondering if an individual who is on JS allowance moves in with their boyfriend/ girlfriend, would they lose all or most of their benefits even if their partner is earning only the minimum wage?

    I tried checking up the official site and I can't seem to find definitive answers to by how much a JS payment would be reduced. The benefit can't be completely taken away and that couple to be forced to live on a single minimum wage income... can it!?!

    Apologies if there's an obvious answer to this!!

    Thanks.
