An extension of carer’s benefit was awarded to the person concerned on 2 June 2017 and the first payment is due to issue to their nominated post office on 8 June 2017.

Arrears of benefit due from 1 June 2017 to 7 June 2017 will also issue to the post office.

The person concerned was notified of these details on 2 June 2017.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy
