Hi all, i'm most prob not the only person wondering about this, i recieve Carers Allowance and get DLA for both of my Girls, but it frustrates me as CA is less than Income Support/JSA and we are not entitled to it! Or is there something i'm missing out on?

i agree with you,i think there should be some kind of payment for us on CA and get dla for their children, so if there is something could you let me know too, thanksx

if theres someone in your house hold that works then you wouldn't be entitled to income support but if theres not then you should be able to claim for it. I do, so i don't see why you can't. See the benefit checker to see what your entitled to, just to make sure your not missing out on anything.
