Following a review of the entitlement of the person in question and based on the information provided, the person concerned was deemed to have an increase in means. This decision was based on her spouse's earnings as stated on his P60 for 2014.

The person in question was notified of this decision on 9 March 2015 and was also given the option to submit further documentation/evidence if she felt this decision was incorrect. To date, no further documentation has been received.
