Hello @annoymous Pleased to meet you welcome.
Thank you for joining and sharing.
I am one of the team of community champions who help and advise new members who join.
In response to your benefit question. I do not know an answer to your benefit query.
There will be members of community or a member of our team who will know the answer.
Have you spoken to CAB about the benefit query you have. They have expertise and knowledge on benefits.
Please take care.

Hi,As you can see by the calculations your carers allowance will be deducted £1 for £1 from your UC payments. DWP should add a carers element of £156 per month. Carers allowance then pay you separately. This means that although you have the deductions from your UC, you'll be £156 better off per month.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
