An officer of my Department contacted the person concerned and issued an application form for the Household Benefits Package to the home address.

To date, there is no record of a Household Benefits Package application form having been received by the Department from the person concerned.

The person concerned can apply online at MyWelfare.ie for the Household Benefits Package if they have a verified MyGovID account, or they can complete the application form which has issued to them.

On receipt of their application, the person's entitlement to the Household Benefits Package will be examined and they will be notified of the outcome without delay.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
