Access to benefits as single parent
Hey girls
So I need some advice. I work 30 hours a week, me & partner have decided to break up after a few years of trying to make things work. We own a house and ideally I want to buy him out. However due to not working full time & pro rata salary being approx 27K, I’m worried this might not be an option. I have 2 children under 5 , would I entitled to claim universal credit for personal allowance (not housing costs)?
