    As a married pensioner getting 430 euro per week I would like to know if it is possible to claim the household benefit package and fuel allowance if my daughter lives at home.
    She is working and I was told that her income is taken into account.
    I do not claim anything and so will not get the water allowance payment.

    All members of a household must qualify for the household benefits package.If your daughter moves in you will not qualify for it.

    Practice if you are over 70 you will qualify for the package irregardless of who else is living with you.
