The application for carer’s allowance in respect of the person concerned was awarded on 27 April 2016 and the first payment is due to issue to the person’s bank nominated post office on 19 May 2016.
Arrears of allowance due, less supplementary welfare allowance paid in the interim, will issue shortly. The person concerned was notified of the award on 27 April 2016.
