    Hi, they just covert the weekly into an annual and divide by 12 to arrive at the monthly figure. I'm guessing your CA went up in April so the increase will be applicable for your most recent AP I guess.

    Hi all

    We had a msg on our UC journal to ask about any changes , do we need to report that we have less savings than they have on system from when we first applied?
    Thank you

    Hi,

    Yes, you should do. Especially if you had more than £6000 total.

    If you always had less than £6000 then it won't change your payments at all, but will create a discrepancy if you have a bank statement review at any point. So I would still recommend reporting it when asked.

    Are people on UC & Claiming Carers allowance allowed to earn money at all?

    Hello @dannistar, is it definitely Carer's Allowance (paid separately to UC) or the carer element of UC you are asking about? I just want to check as the answer is different depending which you are claiming.

    Thanks @dannistar.

    There are strict earning rules on Carer's Allowance, and you can earn no more than £204 a week, if you earn more than this (after deductions) then your Carer's Allowance will stop.

    Carers element does not have any maximum earning limits, you can work full time and still qualify for carers element. However your earnings may impact your overall UC award depending on the full details of your claim and earning amounts.

    As you have a dependent child in your claim, you have what's known as a work allowance.

    This means you can earn £427 each assessment period, before UC make their standard deduction of 0.55p off your UC award for every pound earned.
