I confirm that my Department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 12 April 2017.

Additional information in relation to the person’s application has been requested by a deciding officer on 6 June 2017.Once the information is received the application will be processed without delay and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
