The lady referred to has been awarded invalidity pension with effect from the 11 February 2016. Her first payment issued to her nominated bank account on the 20 October 2016 and arrears due from 11 February 2016 to 19 October 2016 (less any overlapping social welfare payment and/or outstanding overpayment) issued on 27 October 2016. She was notified of this decision on the 03 October 2016.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
