I am on the support rate of ESA (couples rate) with my husband currently, due to the fact that I have a panic disorder. If my husband were to get a job (full time or part time) would it affect my benefits? E.g. Would I have to go on contribution based ESA? I can't work right now so JSA isn't an option. I don't have enough national insurance contributions as I have only worked 3 months in total due to my disorder (I'm 21). I am just worried that his wage will not cover our expenses if ESA was taken away (and we budget a lot as it is). Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks :D
