At the moment I'm self-employed and I claim the disability working tax credit.
My Mums health has got worse, she has applied for attendance allowance and is still waiting for a reply.
At the end of August I will close my shop and become my Mums carer trying to do both is coming to much for me.
I've been told that if Mum gets attendance allowance, I could claim carers allowance.
Is there anything else we could apply for, I presume once I'm no longer self-employed the working tax credit will stop?
Sorry to ask but I'm new to the benefit system.
