This application is currently being processed by my Department. In this regard, the Deciding Officer dealing with the claim recently wrote to the person concerned seeking further details of her employment and of the level of care she provides.

Once this information is received, the Deciding Officer will notify the customer of the outcome.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
