Laylasmummy25 · 18/12/2023 21:38

Hi, with UC what do I need to ask for, all new to this, my daughter was awarded mrc and lrm yesterday. I work so not sure if I can get the carers element I've seen people mention. I know I can't apply for CA as I earn too much
Thankyou for reading

Babygirl2812 · 18/12/2023 21:49

Hi all
scan date 30/08/2023
called this morning , one hour on hold , spoke to a lovely woman , my daughter got awarded today. Not sure when payment will be but back dated from 8/08
good luck everyone, seems they are moving faster !

Paige36 · 18/12/2023 21:52

@Laylasmummy25 you're entitled to carers element. You need to do a change of circumstances on UC then pop a message in your journal under payments stating you want the disabled child element and carers element backdated to the award date. Hope this helps🙂

Laylasmummy25 · 18/12/2023 21:56

@Paige36 yes that helps loads. Thankyou so much
