I confirm that my Department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 5 April 2017. The application is currently being processed and once completed, the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy. Do not hesitate to contact my office for further assistance with this query.
