Hi tajd, the answer to this seems like it would depend on your particular circumstances. You would be better to make direct enquiries of Social Welfare.

You would need to contact social welfare, afaik you are getting a disability payment is that correct?
I have a feeling you've only just been awarded a carer too so you may need to discuss it all properly.
