Hi Copshaw

Yes, though more recently, they have queried whether both parties can fulfill their duties as carers if they are also receiving the highest award for their disabilities.

Hi

As you mention ADP is it OK to assume you are in Scotland ?

On that basis you would have to claim Carer Support Payment instead of Carer Allowance
