Officials in my Department have confirmed with Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI) that the student referred to by the Deputy has been requested on 8th September to provide additional information.
On that basis, the application will be re-assessed and the student will be notified directly by SUSI of the outcome.
Where an appeal is turned down in writing by SUSI and the applicant remains of the view that the scheme has not been interpreted correctly in his or her case, an appeal form outlining the position may be submitted by the applicant to the independent Student Grants Appeals Board. The relevant appeal form will be available on request from SUSI.
