margarete Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 On Radio 4's Money Box today they said something about CARERS (20 or more hours a week) being able to get State Pension Credits IF they apply for them. The programme is repeated tomorrow at 9pm. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00rz66m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't applied, so didn't qualify even though I'd cared for my Mum 24/7 for four years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
