I confirm that my Department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 3 June 2016. Some additional information in relation to the person’s application was requested by the deciding officer on 7 November 2016. Once the information is received, the application will be processed and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
