The Person Concerned has been assessed with an overpayment of 767.40 Euro and was issued with a Deduction Recovery Plan letter on the 14th of March 2024. This letter entitles the Person Concerned to submit a proposal to their Deciding Officer as to the possible figure they are financially comfortable to repay. They should complete this comment section and return it to their Deciding Officer who will consider and make a final decision.
As the Person Concerned is no longer in receipt of a Jobseekers Payment they will also be given the opportunity to set up a standing order, repay in a single transaction, pay online or attend their Local Intreo Office and repay there.
