If people claim income-related Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) and Universal Credit as well as Carer’s Allowance, their payments will be reduced by the amount of Carer’s Allowance they receive.
Whilst claiming Carer’s Allowance, people won’t be able to receive contribution-based Employment and Support Allowance, Incapacity Benefit and Maternity Allowance.
People also cannot claim if they receive Bereavement or widow’s benefits, or contribution-based Jobseeker’s Allowance.
Even though there is no upper age limit for claiming Carer’s Allowance, people cannot receive the full amount of both Carer’s Allowance and a state pension at the same time.
