Help with benefits

Hi
Can anyone work out what we be entitled to please?
I did online, so have a rough idea but unsure how accurate they actually are.
2 parent's to claim carers
2 disabled children on high dla
Last year income
£36k hubby
£3400 for me
This year my husband is having to give up work to help with the Care of his son. So £3400 each for carers this year income.
Rent is £850.
The calculation said we would get help with rent 3 b3d house and income support. And more tax credits. Could anyone work out figures. Is online accurate? He hasn't finished work yet so can't put claim in... Thanks :beer:
