Hi @dil786 there is potential to have up to 3 months backdated carers allowance on the condition you've met the requirements within that period. You'll need to contact DWP to request this. 🙂

Thnx. I didn't apply carer allowance yet. I was asking about carer element? Carer element been added in my this month statement of UC but not backdated. I m confused what to do?

Hi,

The first thing to do is simply to put a message on your journal asking for it to be backdated.

If they refuse then you can appeal through Mandatory Reconsideration.

Sorry @dil786 must have had carers allowance in my head!

Component react.suggestedcontent had an error.

The value must be greater than or equal to 1.
