    Hi there 

    It is the person who provides the care for somebody that applies for carers to give them payment for caring 

    If you are the one receiving the care you don't apply

    Hello @dollydust and welcome to the community. 

    I hope you are well. Has the above response been helpful for you? 

    Just to let you know, I have moved your discussion to the Carers Allowance category, and altered the title to give people an idea of what to expect.
