DRO and a couple

debrag

I have a DRO but I'm moving shortly in with my other half, how will that affect the DRO? Do they look at his wage, half all the bills I put on the SOA etc

If I put say £400 down as rent will they think the rent is £800, with they ask for evidence etc

What are the allowances for a couple? I don't want to get to July and find I'm needing to go BR.

    There is a section for DRO`s at the top of the page, you may get more help if you post this question in there :)

    Hi,

    I've given a little bit of advice on the above post in the DRO thread.
