WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO CLAIM CARER’S ALLOWANCE?

Once you have made the decision to claim for Carer’s Allowance, you should start claiming as soon as possible if the person you are caring for is claiming any of the benefits mentioned above. However, there is an exception for claiming later if:

  • The person you are caring for has not claimed for any of the benefits needed to be eligible
  • The person you are caring for is waiting for a decision on their pending claim application
