Getting together for relationship changes
Being in a relationship, whether it’s new or not, can affect what payments you can apply for and how much you’ll get.
Breaking up with your partner
If you break up with your partner, you need to tell us so we can keep paying you the right amount.
Updating your relationship status
You need to tell us when you become a member of a couple or end a relationship. This is to make sure you get paid correctly.

We may need to ask a third party, a person we call a referee, to verify your relationship status. We’ll tell you when we need referee details.
