The person referred to is in receipt of an invalidity pension (IP), awarded to her on 20 September 2021 with effect from 01 July 2021. She received her first payment to her nominated bank account on 07 October 2021 and arrears due from 20 September 2021 to 06 October 2021 (less any overlapping social welfare payment) issued on 04 November 2021. The person in question was notified of this decision on 20 September 2021.

I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
