Hi Leah,
Rules around benefits can be confusing. Carer's premiums/additions can be added to or taken into account for:
• Income Support
• income-based Job-seeker's Allowance
• Housing Benefit (England, Wales, Scotland) / Housing Benefit (Northern Ireland)
• Council Tax Support
• Pension Credit
• Universal Credit
I would suggest that you seek some advice from a Benefits Specialist at CAB, Turn2US or entitled to.
If you have any questions you would like our Support Line Officers or Information and Support Nurses to answer please post them here and we will respond to them as soon as possible.
