People claiming Carer's Allowance to receive an extra £245 next month in time for Christmas
Carer's Allowance Supplement is an extra payment made twice each year to people in Scotland who get Carer's Allowance on two specific qualifying dates. The additional payments are made in June and December while the Department for Work and Pensions continues to administer Carer’s Allowance on Social Security Scotland’s behalf.
This year’s supplement payments are worth £245.70 each and the latest figures from Social Security Scotland show that 81,680 payments were made to carers who were eligible in April 2022. To qualify for the next payment, due in December, people must be claiming, or have made a new claim, for Carer’s Allowance by October 10, 2022.
