Advice please, I have very recently separated from my wife (retired service). I had been commuting, beanstealing in the Mess, and claiming GYH. I am now living in the Mess, although paying half of mortgage. I am returning fortnightly to see children in a nearby contact house. As I am separated, but still married can I continue to claim GYH allowance and accommodation. And should I declare our separation or can I wait until actually divorced. Thanks
