    Hi Runa
    i am not quite sure but I think that is how it works. Yes i think they will want you to look for work.

    Why do you want to stop claiming carers allowance? What other benefits do you and your partner claim exactly? 

    Have you applied for council Tax reduction? Although I can't give any advice on that because all local Authorities have their own rules but you can still apply. Whether there's any entitlement will depend on your circumstances.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Heya @runa and welcome to the community. :)

    I can see you're already receiving help, but I just wanted to say hi and to let you know I've moved your discussion to the benefits category, so more people will be able to find it if they're having the same problem. I hope that's ok?  :)
