I am 65 and carer for my Husband who is 64 and won't be on state pension till December 2020.
My Husband has PIP and is on UC. I got a GP letter and applied for the two bedroom allowance for rent. We have been awarded the allowance and it was backdated to last November when he come out of Hospital so really pleased about that.
Also was really lucky that my GP did not charge me £25 for the letter.
