I confirm that the department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 11 January 2016.

Additional information that was omitted from the application was requested by a deciding officer and is still awaited. Once this information is received the application will be processed and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
