“In the past, through no fault of their own, some carers built up debts and ended up being fined. It’s been going on for years but now we are putting it right. We're reassessing affected cases. Where mistakes were made, we'll cancel debts and refund money.” - Work and Pensions Secretary Pat McFadden Read about the improvements we are making to Carer's Allowance: https://ow.ly/wxiT50Xxoux | Department for Work and Pensions - DWP

Carer’s Allowance Supplement gets paid automatically to people who were receiving Carer’s Allowance from DWP on 10 October 2022. It is only available to people who get Carer’s Allowance. People who get Carer’s Element of Universal Credit are not eligible for this payment. Payments can arrive at different times depending on your bank. If you think you should be eligible and have not received the payment, please wait until Friday 16 December before getting in touch. | Social Security Scotland
