I confirm that my department received an application for carer’s allowance (CA) from the person concerned on 16 September 2016.
Further information was requested from her on 1 November 2016.
Once received the application will be processed and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
In the meantime, the person concerned is in receipt of a weekly social welfare support.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
