The supplement is an extra payment issued twice a year to people in Scotland
Social Security Scotland has announced that thousands of unpaid carers across the country are set to receive an extra payment of £245.70 next week. The latest figures from the devolved welfare system show that some 81,680 Carer’s Allowance Supplement payments were made in June to carers living in Scotland who were in receipt of the benefit on the qualifying date in April.
Carers Allowance claimants in Scotland do not need to apply for the devolved payment as it is made automatically - if you are eligible for the £245.70 payment, you will receive a letter telling you that you are due one. “The payment of £245.70 will be made automatically to people who were in receipt of Carer's Allowance on 10 October 2022.”
