The person in question applied for Jobseeker’s allowance transition (JST) and was provisionally advised she would qualify. When the application was more closely examined the officer dealing with the claim realised the person in question did not have an entitlement and telephoned the person in question advising her that a payment would not be made.

The person in question was advised of this decision in writing and has also been advised of her right to appeal this decision.
