The person concerned applied to have their family income supplement (FIS) payment renewed with effect from 15 November 2012. Following this re-application, the case of the person concerned was referred to a social welfare investigator to confirm the position regarding family income. The report of the social welfare investigator has recently been received in FIS section and FIS has now been awarded to the person concerned with effect from 15 November 2012 for 52 weeks. Payment including any arrears due since 15 November will reach their nominated bank account on Thursday 31 Jan 2013. The person concerned will be notified directly of the details of this decision.
