I’m on Contribution ESA support group, and enhanced daily, standard mobility on PIP,
My husband has just returned to work full time due to cost of living, since he has returned I’ve had several accidents in the home trying to do the things he normally did.
My sister retired from work early at the age of 63, but was looking for part time work just to keep her from getting bored, she’s been a god send the last 6 months coming over every day doing the jobs I struggled with taking me to appointments, shopping etc, I suggested she might as well claim carers allowance to be honest she probably does more than 35 hours bless her.
My sister does not claim any benefits but does get a work pension of around £380 month, she is married and her husband has a fairly good wage, if my sister claims carers allowance will she be taxed on her work pension? Or will the carers allowance be taxed? We are unsure how it works, will it affect my benefits in anyway.
Also when applying on line they ask about my sister partner, not that it’s a problem but her husband didn’t seem to happy they wanted his details when he’s not claiming it.
Kind regards Dee
