The carer’s allowance application of the person concerned was awarded on 1 October 2015 by arrears only, for the period from 7 May 2015 to 29 July 2015, when the person concerned ceased to provide full-time care and attention.
Payment of the arrears is due to issue to the nominated bank account on 8 October 2015. The person concerned was notified of the decision on 1 October 2015.
