I confirm that my department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 29 February 2016. Some additional information in relation to the person’s application was requested by the deciding officer on 27 May 2016. Once the 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.
