UC Migration Self employed and carer

Hi there, my apologies if this question has been asked a million times already, i keep looking through the threads and googling but still not 100% sure.
i am a full time carer to my disabled partner who recieves PIP, and he is also in the ESA support group. i have a small business working from home, which does not recieve much of a profit, currently on Working Tax Credits and recieve Carers allowance for partner. I understand at some point we will be migrated to UC.
As i am self-employed but also my partner's carer, does that mean, i will be exempt from the minimum income floor ?
Thank you so much for your help

Yes, as a carer you will be exempt from the MiF, but will still have to report income and expenditure every month.2
