Hi, I'm just wondering if anybody knows if there will be an earnings increase for carers next year? The £100 limit didn't rise in 2011.

Thanks

    Just a note that it's not quite 100 earnings.
    It's 100, after tax, any expenses that are unavoidable at your job (not on the way to your job), half the costs of any person you may employ to look after the cared person, some NI contributions, and even half your private pension contributions.

    100 earnings is of course simpler to work out, as the above can be a minefield. (that's not a complete list either)
