My mum was in hospital for 12 weeks there but home now thank god. When i phoned ca sent me a form to reapply as if i was a new claimant. Any other time I just had to reply to a letter… did they make a mistake?
Hi Myles … welcome to the canteen.
Regretably not.
Extract from our own Lord Kitch :
__
Caree in hospital ?
I hope it’s not longer than 28 days as we will have to stop your Carers Allowance ration> . Travelling each day to visit your caree and / or staying over ? How good of you but don’t expect us to pick up the tab.
On many occasions , we will release your caree early … don’t want then overstaying , do we ? Time for you to practice those nursing skills at home … cannot afford to waste valuable NHS resources , can we ? >
Full sp on the effects on benefits for both the caree and the carer :
