The person concerned has been in receipt of the personal rate of jobseeker's assistance since December 2013. Following her marriage on 3 March 2014 she made an application for an increase for an adult dependant. As part of the authorisation process the person concerned and her spouse were interviewed by a Social Welfare Inspector. The full financial circumstances of her spouse were not disclosed, and consequently the decision was taken that her jobseeker's allowance claim would be disallowed. The person concerned has been sent written notification of this decision and of her right to appeal it to the Social Welfare Appeals Office.
