An application for carer's allowance (CA) was received from the person concerned on 2 November 2017.
The application was awarded to the person concerned on 9 January 2018 and the first payment will issue to her nominated post office on 18 January 2018.
Arrears of allowance due from 2 November 2017 to 8 January 2018 have also issued.
The person concerned was notified on 9 January 2018 of this decision, the reason for it and of her right of review and appeal.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
