I've been a long time carer for ds therefore been on (legacy) benefits. This will not change as long as he is alive. Dd is due to start uni next year and I've got no idea how this will impact our household wrt benefits. I assume any maintenance loan she gets will affect my benefits as it's seemed as income? She is planning to stay at home, but cannot afford to not get the ML as she will have travel costs. Equally I cannot afford to lose money either. Does anyone have experience of this?
