    I’ll be retiring on Friday and will be 60 the following Monday, I’ll be two years short of national insurance contributions, stamp duty, to get the full state pension at 67, due to the rule changes in 2016. I understand that if I claim the carers allowance for our daughter my stamp duty will be paid, it’s currently claimed by my wife who has spare years to make up her full state pension. Has anyone ever changed who claims the carers allowance and if so how is it done? Thanks for any help.

    Happy retirement for Friday @Marc

    As to your question yes My wife claims carers allowance for our daughter and gets a stamp each year as I have the required amount for full state pension.
