Changes in carer's benefits rules
Changes in carer's benefits rules will help more families with disabled children
From 12th April 2010 Carer's Allowance, the only state benefit specifically aimed at carers, will be made available to a greater number of those who are working. Carer's Allowance cannot be paid to a carer if they work and earn more than a set amount. The earnings limit will be raised from £95 to £100 after tax deductions - the first time it has been changed since 2007.
