352. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Social Protection the status of an application for a disability allowance of a person (details supplied). [23966/16]
View answerI confirm that the department is in receipt of an application for disability allowance (DA) from the above named person on 19 May 2016. On completion of the necessary investigations on all aspects of the application a decision will be made and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
The processing time for individual DA applications may vary in accordance with their relative complexity in terms of the three main qualifying criteria, the person’s circumstances and the information they provide in support of their claim.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
