I confirm an application for disability allowance (DA) was received from the person concerned on 28 September 2017.
They currently have means in excess of the statutory limit which means they are not currently entitled to DA. There will be a change in their circumstances from 1 August 2018 which means they will qualify for DA from that date and their first payment of DA will issue on 1 August 2018.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
