    £144.70. I though he would get more than this? When I was on IS myself. I got £70 odd. Then low rate care/mobilty DLA. So worked out £110.00 per week/roughly.

    If I for talk sake was alone. DLA is £89.00 a week. If stayed alone 50.00 odd IS plus 50.00 on top as knowbody was getting CA.

    I may be wrong, probably. Just would like to make sure before I quote numbers to him



    The reason I though he get more that £144.70 is due to the high rate of care.

    Basic IS - £50.95
    Disability premium - £27.50
    SDP - £52.85

    total = £144.70
