Carers allowance and holiday pay

Hi just after some advice please? I receive CA for my son. I currently work and earn just under the weekly threshold to qualify for CA. I have recently left my job to begin another one. I am owed holiday pay. When I get paid both my holiday pay and my wages from my new job it will take me over my threshold of what I can earn for CA. This will only be a one time thing. Will I have to cancel my CA and reapply as I know they stop it if you go over the threshold of what you can earn? Hope this makes sense.
TIA x

You can ring then and let them know and they just cancel it for that month. I've done this before when I had CA but then sometimes rung them the following month to confirm I was back to normal with pay.
