What other benefits can I claim?

jodiejeffers

hi,

I am currently receiving UC, PIP, carers allowance. My housing costs are fully covered by UC.

Would I be better off if I didn’t receive carers allowance and claimed the Limited Capability to work element?

Struggling with bills and lost my transnational protection payment due to a break in my housing benefits.

I believe so yes, as LCWRA Element pays £416.19 a month, and the Carers Element deduction is £353.17.

So if you were given LCWRA you should be £63.02 better off per month.

If you claim with a partner who gets LCWRA themselves, no extra money would be paid as the maximum number of LCWRA elements payable in a couple is one.

Do you receive help with Council Tax?
