A half-rate increase in Carer's Allowance in respect of a qualified child ceased on 1 July 2015 as the child was no longer in full-time day education. Once confirmation of attendance was received, the increase was re-instated. However, there were two outstanding payments from July which issued on the 8 September 2015 to the person’s nominated post office.
