The person concerned applied to have their family income supplement (FIS) payment renewed with effect from 18 October 2012.

Following this re-application, the case of the person concerned was referred to a social welfare inspector to establish and confirm the position regarding family income.

The inspector has been in touch with the person concerned and has arranged an interview to establish the current position regarding their family income. Once the inspector’s report is finalised a decision on the entitlement of the person concerned to FIS will be made without delay. The person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
