I confirm that the department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 4 June 2015.To qualify the carer must live with or be in a position to provide full-time care and attention (FTCA) to a person who requires FTCA. The carer must also satisfy a means test.

The application from the person concerned is currently being processed and once these conditions have been investigated, the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
