There are others who can't receive Carer's Allowance and other benefits. A widow or widower can't get the Carer's Allowance and Bereavement Benefit at the same time. If Incapacity Benefit is claimed because yir unfit for work, you can't get both benefits. We call them overlapping Benefits and while I agree it's unfair, it's what the law decrees I'm afraid.
