I currently have a full-time job which doesn't meet the financial requirements of £18600. My parents are quite sick so I'm planning to do carer's allowance as I need to take care of both of them.
I don't know much about the adequate maintenance requirements, but the carer's allowance would be about £62 per week. If I work part-time would I not be able to get on with the adequate maintenance, if not is £62 enough to get on with it then? , if not Is there anything I could do to make it possible.

By the way, I live with my parents whom they are happy to welcome my wife to live with us as well, so we have free accomodation ( free rent ).

Please advise me further, I don't want to lose any hope on getting my wife here. As My parents need me, and I'm just not able to move there either.
