Pension problem?

[tenaj55]

Hi

I am currently getting Carer's Allowance.

Can anyone confirm (or deny!) that my pension counts towards my £116/ week allowed earnings?

Hello, I will just mention my position, I had to retire early due to my health, I was provided a works pension due to ill health, I have a disabled son and I receive carers allowance for him, my private pension was not regarded as earnings as if I had a job or employed........

Unsure on the carers allowance when I receive my state pension in a few years time..... if anyone could enlighten us on this..thanks.
