The application for carer's allowance by the person in question was disallowed on the 23rd of January 2013. The person in question appealed this decision and submitted additional evidence in support of the application. The decision was reviewed by a deciding officer in the light of the additional evidence supplied but there was no change in the decision and the customer wax notified of this on the 7th June 2013. All the necessary papers have recently been submitted by the Department to the Social Welfare Appeals Office for determination. The Social Welfare Appeals Office will be in touch with the person directly regarding the progress of the appeal.
