The Jobseekers Allowance payment of the person concerned was suspended because, after four visits, it could not be verified by a Social Welfare Inspector that she was living at the given address. A Supplementary Welfare Allowance payment was made to her on 22nd April 2016, pending the outcome of the investigation.
The Inspector will undertake to make contact with the client outside of the times she attends her clinic appointments. On completion of the investigation a report will issue to a Deciding Officer and a decision will issue to the client.
