Following a review of the entitlement of this lady, disability allowance (DA) was disallowed with effect from 17 January 2017 as she was deemed to have means in excess of the statutory limit for her circumstances. Notification of this decision issued on 6 January 2017.

The person in question has been advised of her right to review and/or appeal this decision to the social welfare appeals office.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
