I confirm that the department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 9 June 2015. The application was forwarded to a Social Welfare Inspector (SWI) for assessment of the level of care being provided, assessment of means and confirmation that all the conditions for receipt of carer’s allowance are satisfied.
Once the SWI has completed and submitted their report, the application will be processed as quickly as possible and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
