The Department is committed to providing a quality service to all its customers. This includes ensuring that applications are processed and that decisions on entitlement are made as quickly as possible. In the case of the person concerned his family income supplement (FIS) payment expired on the 29 August 2012. His renewal application has recently been awarded from 30 August 2012 to 28 August 2013 and he will receive his first payment on 15 November 2012. The person concerned will shortly receive a notification with full details of this decision.
