You can get Carer's Allowance & UC but your Carer's Allowance is deducted from your Universal Credit like mine is deducted from my Income Support. That is not the same as sanctions.

Sanctions its not a set value that is deducted but instead it tends to be the whole of your UC that is stopped no matter how much you get.

Claiming Carers Allowance can enable you to get an extra allowance added to the amount of UC you're entitled to before deductions and get you let off the requirement to search for a full time job because to get CA you need to be caring for at least 35 hrs/week.
