Please search on this site = Single Person Discount and U will get all the answers.

Anyway brief answer to your query- You should pay them back. Second- If home office get to know you are claiming single person discount how can you say your wife has been in UK for 2 Years.

I don't think it would impact your ILR though ...

Single person discount is a DISCOUNT! it is not a benefit. I also claimed single person discount when I was renting an apartment alone.
