The person concerned has been awarded child benefit effective from 1st September 2018. This application is being further considered under EU Regulation 883/2004 for the period 2014 to August 2018; additional information has been requested from the person concerned regarding the regularisation of their Social Insurance contributions in the relevant member state.

A decision will be made promptly on receipt of the requested information.

I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
