The person named submitted a 2016 transfer of entitlements application to my Department on 16 August 2016. The closing date for receipt of such applications was the 16 May 2016. The application was not successful as it was submitted after the closing date. The person named was notified of this decision and was offered the opportunity to submit an appeal.

My Department has now received an appeal from the person named in relation to their Transfer of Entitlements application. This appeal will be considered by my Department based on the information set out by the applicant and a decision with regard to the outcome of the appeal will be notified in writing to the applicant as soon as possible.
