Hi @katiepurvis21
Welcome to the community! As your husband is already claiming for your son unfortunately he can't claim for you tooDisability Gamechanger - 2019 -
Hi @katiepurvis21
Good Morning & Welcome to our Community/Website.
We have got some great info on “Benefit’s” here on our site.

Hi @katiepurvis21 and welcome to the community!
Unfortunately you can only get carers allowance for one person, here is what I found on the Scope website:"You can only get one award for Carer's Allowance even if you care for more than one person."Please do let us know if the community can help in any other way!Scope
