I received carers for my wife but my health is also getting worse can l claim adult disability payment for myself whilst I am getting carers allowance for my wife
Hi,
You can claim ADP at the same time as Carers Allowance, as long as there is no contradiction between the two.
The assessors are likely to use the fact that you can offer 35 hours of care to another person as evidence against an ADP claim. So it is possible, you just have to be careful and not allow them to make inaccurate assumptions.
The value must be greater than or equal to 1.
