Written answers

I confirm that the Department received an application for carer’s allowance (CA) from the person concerned on 28 July 2015. The person concerned was refused CA on the grounds that she was not providing full-time care and attention as required.

The person concerned was notified on 24 September 2015 of this decision, the reason for it and of her right of review and appeal.

The person concerned requested a review of this decision. Additional information in relation to the person’s circumstances has been requested by the deciding officer. Once the information is received the application will be processed and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome of the review.
