Janus   28 #2 Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) I cannot answer your question definitively but I found this online.  Quote: "You might not be entitled to get higher payments of your other benefits if someone gets paid Carer’s Allowance for looking after you. Contact your nearest Citizens Advice". Age UK help line 0800 169 8787.  Edited February 3, 2019 by Janus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
