PIP and carers allowance was created by Callista

My husband has taken early retirement to care for me. I am receiving full PIP, if he applies for this does it get deducted from my allowance. Also is Carers Allowance means tested? Thank you

Hi Callista

No, carers allowance is not taken from your PIP award. You can read about the eligibility of carers allowance here. www.gov.uk/carers-allowance
