An application for disability allowance was received from the person in question by the Department on 11 December 2014.

On 6 February 2015, while the medical eligibility of the person in question was being assessed by a deciding officer, the person in question submitted additional medical evidence for consideration. This additional evidence is currently being reviewed.

Once a decision has been made on all aspects of the application, the person concerned will be notified directly in writing.
