(asked on 1st December 2022) - View Source
Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many people in receipt of Carer’s Allowance have earnings below the earnings threshold for that benefit.
This question was answered on 8th December 2022
By default, all Carer’s Allowance (CA) recipients in employment have earnings below the CA earnings limit, as it is not possible to claim CA while earnings from employment are above the CA earnings limit. Those receiving CA who are not in employment are not affected by the CA earnings limit.
