Carer's allowance (CA) is a payment made to persons who are providing full-time care and attention to certain people with disabilities and whose income falls below certain limits.
The department informs me that there is no application for CA by the person concerned currently registered.
However I have arranged for an application form (CR1) to issue, which the person concerned should complete and return as soon as possible. Upon receipt of a fully completed application form and any necessary supporting documentation, the entitlement of the person concerned to CA will be determined and they will be notified directly of the outcome.
