    Does your wife's payment have any Disability Income Guarantee paid? 
    Sorry I have never heared of that. Done a quick google search then, but she gets PIP Standard Care and High Mobility so I don't think she would be entitled to that. Thanks for the info anyways.

    We think she's getting to the stage where her care may fall under the higher rate, although we don't want to put her through all the stress of being reassessed. Will just wait until they eventually call for a reassessment.

    In mean time will look into if I can add her to my works medicash. Will price up and see if worth it or not.

    Please refer to my previous comment. It doesn't exist for your partner because they are claiming New style ESA.
