As a result of an Appeals Officer’s decision, carer's allowance was awarded to the person concerned on 7 February 2019 with effect from 10 January 2019. The first payment will issue to her nominated post office on 14 February 2019.

Arrears for the period from 10 January 2019 to 13 February will also issue on 14 February 2019.

The person concerned was notified of the outcome on 7 February 2019.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
