Income Based JSA - so confused!

Hi my partner has just been told he has to moved to Income Based JSA as he doesn't have enough for contributions (he's just moved off contributions ESA after illness). I'm on contributions based ESA and have been placed into WRAG as I am awaiting treatment. I get roughly £99 per week. I also get low rate mobility and care DLA of roughly £20 each per week. We receive some housing and council tax benefit.
Can anyone help us work out roughly how much incomed based JSA my partner would get? We are worried we might get very little and not have enough for our bills etc... so any advice would be great.
Thansk! Lou

If you claimed an income related topup to your ESA, I make it that you'd get about £40 a week for that on top of your £99 plus full housing benefit and council tax benefit.
