View answerThe claim of the person concerned was disallowed on 22 November 2016 on Habitual Residence Condition and means grounds. He requested a review of the decision and his claim was returned to the Social Welfare Inspector on 8 December 2016. The Social Welfare Inspector has now reviewed the file and the person will be informed of the decision this week. If the person is not satisfied with the decision, he will be afforded an opportunity to appeal the decision to the Chief Appeals Office.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
