How will we repay the council charge on our house if my wife goes into care?

The good news is that your home won’t form part of the financial assessment if your wife has to move into a residential home. It will be exempt from the means test as long as you (the spouse) are living in it and it is your primary residence, so you don’t need to worry about a charge being applied or having to repay it.
