Half Carers Allowance

Jerome77 · 2016-11-03 20:59:26

Hi a person I know is on disability allowance and his wife is dependent person, they get 402 a week and 55 euro rent allowance, (they have kids.) Can my friend also claim half carers allowance of €121 for a relative whilst still claiming the above ? Thanks
