The person concerned is currently in receipt of a One-Parent Family Payment (OFP) and Family Income Supplement (FIS). From 1 July 2015, her FIS will be adjusted to take account of the fact that she will no longer be eligible for OFP. In addition, she may also apply for the Back to Work Family Dividend (BTWFD). The BTWFD application form issued with the information pack in April 2015.
