The person concerned does not have a current pending application for jobseeker’s allowance registered with this Department. A previous application dated 18 December 2013 was disallowed on the basis that the person concerned did not demonstrate that her means were not in excess of the prescribed limit. She did not appeal the decision. It is open to the person concerned to submit a fresh application if she feels she meets the criteria for receipt of this income support.
