The person concerned had a previous jobseeker allowance claim closed on 13/12/16 as she failed to collect her weekly payments. The person concerned re-applied for jobseeker allowance on 20/1/17. This application was reviewed by a social welfare inspector and a decision has been made to disallow the claim due to means not disclosed. If the person is not satisfied with this decision she can appeal this outcome through her local branch office.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
