Invalidity pension (IP) is a payment for people who are permanently incapable of work because of illness or incapacity and who satisfy the pay related social insurance (PRSI) contribution conditions.
A claim for IP was received from the lady concerned on the 08 November 2016. In order to establish medical eligibility two medical report forms have issued to her for completion. On receipt of the completed forms, the IP claim will be processed as quickly as possible and the lady concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
