Carer's benefit (CARB) is a payment made to insured people who leave the workforce to care for a person(s) in need of full-time care and attention.

An application for CARB was received from the person concerned on 25 January 2018.

The application is currently being processed and once completed the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
