PIP and Income support was created by carmind
I have a client who has been refused PIP when transferred from DLA. As a result, her partner's Carers Allowance and their Income Support have also been stopped.
Is this correct?

Hi Carmind,

Yes, I am afraid this is correct. Carers' allowance is dependent on a care award and Income Support is dependent on Carers' allowance.

Obviously, you will know better than me whether there might be anything else the couple can claim.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
