Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 18 December 2014
71. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection if she will confirm that all documents requested have been submitted in the case of a jobseeker's application in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; if a decision is likely to issue at an early date; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [49415/14]
View answerThe person concerned has not submitted all the documents requested in respect of his jobseeker's allowance application. The details of bank accounts held either solely or jointly with his spouse are still outstanding. His jobseeker’s allowance claim is currently disallowed for non-disclosure of means.
This decision has been appealed to the Social Welfare Appeals Office. The person concerned has been written to and advised if the documentation outstanding is submitted to his local office by 17/12/2014 a review of the application will be undertaken. If the documentation is not submitted by this date, the claim will then be forwarded to the Social Welfare Appeals Office.
