Hi,

Both of these benefits aren't part of UC. What other benefits do you receive?

You won't be moved to UC by claiming carers allowance because it's not part of it.

However, you should both be claiming Severe disability premium (SDP) in with your ESA instead of claiming carers allowance for each other. Claiming the SDP will mean you'll be £59.70 per week better off. To claim this you both need to cancel the carers allowance first.
