I confirm that the department received an application for carer’s allowance (CA) from the person concerned. The application was referred to a social welfare inspector (SWI) on 6 October 2015 to assess the level of care being provided, assess means and confirm that all the conditions for receipt of CA are satisfied.

Once the SWI has reported, a deciding officer will make a decision on the application and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
