Working Family Payment (WFP) is an in-work weekly payment which provides additional income support to employees on low earnings with children.
An application for WFP was received from the person concerned on 28 December 2018.
In order to process their WFP application, further information is required in respect of their current employment.
The Department has written to the applicant on 7 January 2019 and has requested 2 current payslips.
On receipt of the requested documents from the person concerned, their WFP application will be processed without delay and they will be notified of the decision.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
