The payments of £245.70 are made automatically to people who are in receipt of the benefit on two specific qualifying dates throughout the year
More than 81,000 people currently claiming Carer’s Allowance received an extra payment for £245.70 in December 2022 as part of a unique benefit only available in Scotland. Carer’s Allowance Supplement is a devolved payment, only given to those living in Scotland, twice each year.
To be eligible for the June payment, people will need to have made a claim for Carer’s Allowance to DWP by April 10, 2023. To qualify for the December payment, claims must be received by October 10, 2023 - the second qualifying date has still to be confirmed on MyGov.Scot. However, processing times fluctuate throughout the year and it could take less or more time to get a decision. Payments can be backdated by up to three months.
