Hi I’m looking for some advice….ive had my carers allowance stopped due to earning to much. I work 16 hours a week and earn £772 a month. I also get Universal Credit and the carers allowance is taken off my Universal Credit so my question I’m stomped on is?

Lose the carers allowance and stay working 16 hours or drop my hours and claim Carers allowance ? Can’t work out which one is better as I do care for my daughter.

Any advice would be great x
