Reply To: Can my parent get cadets allowance?
Claiming benefits is a nightmare as we all know. But here you have two separate benefits, that are claimed by two different people.However, if you look here
https://www.gov.uk/carers-allowance
and the associated links you will see that it it could be possible, depending on all the relevant factors, that there will be no change to your benefits. Clearly, only the Benefits people or perhaps the CAB can properly advise you. I would suggest the latter as they are more likely to give you an unbiased view. Got to be worth looking at. Remember though a key element of Carers Allowance is that the carer provides the car for at least 35 hours a week.
You may also wish to talk to the advisors at the MDUK Helpine who are very knowledgeable.
