    I have a question regarding the £60.

    I received the £10 Christmas bonus myself with my Carer's Allowance in December. I also got another £10 Christmas bonus for my daughter on her DLA December award.

    Does this mean we will get two £60 awards between January and March, or just the one?

    Thanks in advance.

    You will get 2 X £60 one for each qualifing benefit not per household, exactly the same as your £10 bonus

    Hi there
    We had the same, £10 for CA for myself and my son as well (DLA), so as the above poster added for the £60 its per qualifying benefit.;)
    The one and only "Dizzy Di" :D

    Probably a silly question but why are they doing it in alphabetical order, why not just pay everyone at the same time like they do with the £10 bonus?

    Because that would suggest we live in a fair, balanced, democratic society and that would never do.

    From what you've said you will only get one, as you do not claim any of the benefits i.e not in your name

    Hope that helps
