Previous PQs 35112, 40320, 42139 refer. The jobseekers allowance application of the person concerned was disallowed as he was not available at his stated address and as such his means could be determined. The person concerned was requested to provide the Department with documentation to support his application and to date has not provided same. He has been informed of his right to appeal this decision with the Appeals office. To date no appeal has been received by the Department.
