Following a successful appeal, this lady has been awarded disability allowance (DA) with effect from 15 January 2020. The first payment will be made by her chosen payment method on 2 December 2020. The person concerned was notified in writing of this decision on 10 November 2020.

Arrears of payment due will issue as soon as possible once any necessary adjustment is calculated and applied in respect of any overlapping payments (if applicable).

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
