I live with my partner, we have been together nearly 30 years but have not married. We both have a full state pension and he has a small works pension. If one of us was to die would we be financially better off if we were to marry. The house is in joint names as are the bank accounts. If he were to die before me I would struggle to keep the house going . I know I would get the widows payment for the first year but would there be any advantages if we were married going forward. Sorry if this sounds grabby but we have lost a family member each year for the last four years and it has made me wonder how I would manage. Thanks for reading
