Hi Mums I hope someone can help me and maybe guide me as what I should do.
So I've been with my partner for 4 and a half years, we have a 3 year old daugther. My partner hasn't been working for the last 7 months so we started claiming universal credits. I work 16 hours a weeks so we started receiving the benefits with my salary which not a lot but of course it helps with rent and bills. I am now in a difficult situation as we are kind of going through a separations but he's still living with us but of course not working . So I've started being self employed and of course receiving some extra little money , but haven't told the universal credit , but not sure what to do now as it been couple of months, and now my partner wants to leaves us , and not sure what would happen if when the universal credit find out about the self employed job, and if I have to give the money back which I don't mind giving back If I need , but if my partner leaves us and I have to give everything back I thinks its an affair as both us started claiming and no he just disappeares and leaves everything on my head. I know this might be a bit too much and confusing but maybe someone has been in similar situation and can help me out . Appreciate all for all the comments in advance.
