This gentleman submitted an application for disability allowance on 7 November 2016.
The application, based upon the evidence submitted, was refused on medical grounds and the person in question was notified in writing of this decision on 19 April 2017 and of his rights of review and appeal. No request for a review or an appeal has been received to date.
If the person in question believes they may qualify, it is open to him to reapply by completing and submitting to the Department the relevant application form (DA1).
The person concerned is not in receipt of Rent Allowance.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
