On receipt of additional medical evidence, submitted in support of their appeal , a review of this person's claim was carried out and they have been awarded invalidity pension with effect from the 08 March 2018. As a result the appeal is no longer necessary.

Payment will issue to their nominated bank post office on the 25 October 2018. Any arrears due from 08 March 2018 to 24 October 2018 (less any overlapping social welfare payment) will issue in due course. The person concerned was notified of this decision on the 11 October 2018.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
