    Can I ask how it took her a month to notice her benefits had stopped?
    Maybe she only gets her benefits paid every month/four weekly.

    For benefits purposes they are being classed as a couple - they have a financial commitment but are not a couple. Descision maker said it was a unique situation.
    A financial partnership is one of the main things that are considered when looking at living together decisions. Though there are other things of course.

    This might be of some use either in this case or others.
