    He's not much of a 'partner' if he doesn't contribute. If you mean for benefit purposes I don't think there is a fixed number of nights but if you consider him your partner then they probably will for benefits purposes too.

    If he's not contributing then he's not a partner but a boyfriend.

    There is no set number of nights. Not much of a partner is he ? I'd dump the loser.

    Your partner can never stay. Your non contributing boyfriend however can stay 7 nights without affecting your benefits.

    If he stays 7 nights a week then he's living there and the OP is not a single person.

    There is no limit. He might return to his own home after 7 nights.

    there is no exact number of days , but i would ask why your letting him stay at yours without contributing to anything such as food etc
    it sounds lik your trying to make the most of benfits whilst trying to keep a relationship going

    maybe your new years res is for him to move in with you permantly and contribute to the househould

    It is entirely up to you, if you can afford to have him there whose to stop you?

    Or do you mean something else ?

    If you're claiming benefits as a single person and have a partner, you are commiting benefit fraud. But dont worry millions more are "at it"
