I confirm that my Department received an application for Family Income Supplement (FIS) from the person concerned on 14th November 2017. FIS is not payable while an applicant is a Qualified Adult (QA) on Jobseekers Allowance (JA).
The local INTREO office has now adjusted the above allowance and the person concerned has been awarded FIS with effect from 16 November 2017 to 14 November 2018.
The first payment will issue to the nominated bank account on Thursday 7 December 2017 and any arrears owing will issue on this date.
The person concerned was notified on 4 December 2017 of the decision and of the right of review and appeal.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
