genuine question: does that mean that one only qualifies for support as long as one remains unmarried?

My partner and I are going to get married in every way but legally purely because of this. If I marry him, he will be legally marked as my caregiver-

In Canada I was denied disability because I lived with my grown children who helped pay bills (as all roommates would do). They called it income.

I told my husband if one of us is getting very sick we are getting divorced. Nobody will be paying that bill after.

It’s literally the only reason why a friend of mine and her partner haven’t gotten married. Been together 15yrs but she’s disabled; they’d lose it all
