When claiming UC there’s no financial gain to claiming carers allowance at the same time because it’s deducted in full from any UC entitlement.You can claim carers element without claiming carers allowance. However, if the person is receiving LCWRA in their UC for their self they won’t be able to receive the carers element at the same time.0

On CA you get Class 1 NI credits whereas UC only gives Class3. For most people this makes no difference.0
