If that were the case, then the friend would only be claiming carers allowance and CTC (plus the child's DLA)
Would be reasonable to assume they would also be claiming a means tested benefit for their own living costs possibly rent too.
The date mentioned would make that benefit UC, which would have stopped the CTC.
For any meaningful advice to be given, this needs clarification0 -
Thanks for the initial replies people. I'll seek to garner further information on what benefits sh'e currently receiving and get back to you. I was only asking to try and help, but i'm not one to pry into other people's finances, but she is aware I was going to ask for help.1
