The Carer’s Allowance Supplement is the extra payment for people in Scotland who get Carer’s Allowance. The next 2 rounds of payments are 26 June 2020 (£230.10) and December 2020 (£230.10, date to be confirmed)
There is an extra payment of £230.10 on 26 June due to coronavirus, if you are receiving a payment for the 13 April 2020 eligibility date, then your payment will be £460.20. This payment is taxable, but will not affect any other benefits or tax credits you get.
If you’re due to receive a payment, you will receive a letter from Social Security Scotland. However, if you would like any advice or assistance in relation to this, please contact one of CHA’s Financial Inclusion Team by using the contact details listed below.
