The latest figures released by the Scottish Government show that over 658,000 Carer’s Allowance Supplement payments have been made to 126,055 people since the bi-annual bonus was first introduced in September 2018.

Carer's Allowance Supplement is an extra payment for people in Scotland who get Carer's Allowance from the Department for Work and Pensions (DwP).

Just under 82,000 eligible claimants received a double payment of £462.80 in December, 2021 in recognition of the impacts of the coronavirus pandemic on unpaid carers.

There are two Carer's Allowance Supplement eligibility qualifying dates each year and it has now been confirmed that this year the deadlines will be Monday, April 11 and Monday, October 10, 2022 - which means you must have made a claim by those dates to receive either supplemental payment.
