According to the records available to my Department, the employer in question made one person redundant on 17 March 2009 and submitted the relevant RP50 forms online on 20 of April, 2009 seeking a rebate of 60% in respect of the statutory amount paid.

All claims are processed in order of date of receipt with priority being given to claims filed online and lump-sum payments directly to workers in cases where the employer is insolvent. Currently, the claims are being processed in respect of applications made on-line in December 2008 and those submitted manually in November 2008.
