Changes to IS entitlement
Thu 22-Jan-09 07:36 AM

Tried googling and other sites but can't find amending regs to schedule 1b stopping claims for incap. could anyone point me in the right direction. I'm curious whether the schedule has been changed in any way in respect of carers. Thanks

Cheers for the link. Have checked and saw what i expected to see about IS on incap grouds. Just curious about IS and carers because Touchbase latest edition mentioned IS still available for those receiving Carers Allowance but mentioned nothing about those other carers without CA covered by Reg 4 of Scedule 1B. Lone parents caring for DLA kids still able to claim IS but no mention of any other caring arrangements.

Just wondered if there had been other changes to Schedule IB aside from the incap.
