The application for carer’s allowance (CA) in respect of the person concerned was awarded on 4 July 2016 in respect of 2nd care recipient and payment issued to her nominated bank account on 7 July 2016.

Arrears of allowance due from 3 December 2015 to 6 July 2016 have also issued. The person concerned was notified of these details on 4 July 2016.

The person concerned has requested a review of this decision. The review is currently being processed and once completed, the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
