Can someone help me please.
My son gets PIP and LCWRA- universal credit. I have just had to give up my part time job, will it affect his benefits if I claim carers allowance? 
many thanks.

    No it will not. His PIP will need to include the daily living part for you to claim CA.

    Hey @nodrog36 and welcome to the community. :)

    I see Poppy has already answered your question, but I just wanted to say hi and let you know I've moved your post to the benefits category, so more people will be able to see it if they need support too.  I hope that's ok?
