Officials from the Inheritance Enquiry Unit of my Department have written to the legal personal representatives of the deceased applicant requesting the usual testamentary documents and bank account details to which the payments should be released. We await further instruction on the matter and when all outstanding documentation is received the outstanding payments can issue to the estate of the deceased applicant.

Any Payments arising from the 2015 scheme year are due to the Estate of the deceased applicant and not to the person named.

Payments under the 2016 Basic Payment scheme year will commence for all eligible applicants to the on 16th October 2016.
