This is unfortunately not correct during the four week break CA would still be in payment but the £100 weekly limit still applies......


I think an invoice would be sufficient to prove the cost of the extra caring whilst at work, to confirm this give Carers Allowance a ring

Thank you, I was fairly certain the £100 limit would still apply. I've tried to call CA but they only have an 0845 number which isn't included in free mobile minutes. No email address either!
