My department informs me that there is no record of an application for carer’s allowance (CA) from the person concerned. If the person in question wishes to make an application, he should complete and return the application form (CR1) that I have arranged to issue to him.

On receipt of a fully completed application form, his entitlement to CA will be determined. I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
