An application for disability allowance was received from the person concerned on 16th March 2012. This application was referred to one of the Department’s medical assessors who found that the person concerned was not medically eligible for disability allowance. Further medical evidence has been received in support of the application and is under consideration by our medical assessors. A decision will be made on this further medical evidence as soon as possible and the person concerned will be notified of the outcome.
