Hi Just another question, now that I have been awarded standard rate care, and my husband is on enhanced rate care. And I'm in the support group ESA (IR). Are we both entitled to severe disability premium and if so how much is it. Best wishes

Providing no one else lives with and no one claims Carers Allowance for either of you. It should be £61.85/week each (£123.70). Depending on your circumstances and ability to do so, one of you may be able to claim Carers Allowance for the other.
