He will get housing benefit he qualifies for. You might have to pay something or nothing. No one can tell you as we dont know your circumstances etc.

Yes you need a national insurance number first to be able to work.

If you work, any or some benefits your husband qualifies for is likely to be based on taking your salary into account.
