If you are getting severe disability allowance for working tax credits can you also claim for carers allowance.

I have moved your post to it's own topic, we ask members not to post the questions in other's topics, as it can lead to the wrong advice being given or taken.

I'm afraid your terminology does not make sense, do you mean the Disability Element for WTC? Severe Disability Allowance is a separate benefit that hasn't been award for some considerable time.

Carers Allowance is claimed against a disability benefit such as the Care component of DLA (medium or higher rate) or the Daily Living component of PIP. The carer claims CA against the benefit of a caree and must be able to provide a minimum of 35 hours of care a week, there are also restrictions on how much they can earn.
