The person named was approved into GLAS 1 with a contract commencement date of 1 January 2016 and has received all payments in respect of 2016.

Validation checks must be passed on all actions on GLAS claims and all cases must clear these checks before payment can issue. My Department is working proactively to complete these checks on all claims to allow for the issue of payments. Once this case clears validations the 2017 advance payment will be made. GLAS payments are issuing on a weekly basis.
