You need 6 months of payslips showing earnings of at least £9,300 over the 6 month period, together with 6 months of corresponding bank statements. The minimum yearly income level is £18,600.

You can't use someone others benefits income to meet financial requirement.

Unless you are getting one of the benefits that exempt you like Carers allowance in your name, you will need to shows 6 months payslips in a job that pays £18,600.

What is your current salary in the new job? How much savings do you have?

You have to become a registered carer and will not be able to carry on working this many hours.

When you have become the registered carer after applying to become one, then you will be exempt and will only need to show adequate maintenance, so part-time job would be perfect or some savings.
