Carers Allowance: Which benefits could possibly stop you from receiving £69.70 a week? | Personal Finance | Finance

These include Attendance Allowance, Constant Attendance Allowance, the care component of Disability Living Allowance at the middle or highest rate, and the daily living component of Personal Independence Payment at either rate or the Armed Forces Independence Payment.

Carers can only claim for the allowance once which means they cannot claim twice if they care for more than one person.

It also says that if someone else also cares for the same person, then only one of the carers can claim the allowance.

To make a claim, a person will need their bank or building society details, their employment details and the latest payslip if they’re working, or if they have finished work they must also have their P45.
