The person concerned made an application for Jobseekers Allowance on 27/08/2018. Supporting documentation was requested and was supplied by customer on 13/09/2018. The claim was awarded on that date with arrears backdated to 20/08/2018. This claim is now in payment.

I trust that this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
