Carer Allowance - PBS Tier 1 General Dependant

Post by lonerunner » Thu May 21, 2020 7:46 pm

Dear Members,

In need of your valuable advice again please.

Can my wife, currently on a PBS Tier 1 general dependant visa, claim carer's allowance for our British child who is in receipt of Disability Living Allowance. She is the main carer of child being at home and I am in full time employment, hoping that she can claim without affecting her ILR prospects?

Many thanks in advance for all your help in advance.

Kind Regards
Lonerunner

"If you have a residence permit that allows you to live in the UK, it may include the condition that you have no recourse to public funds."

Carer's allowance is a public fund.
