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.
The department received a claim for IP for the gentleman concerned on 16 February 2018. His claim was disallowed on the grounds that the medical conditions for the scheme were not satisfied. He was notified on the 07 June 2018 of this decision, the reasons for it and of his right of review and appeal. To date there is no record of a request for a review or an appeal having been received from the gentleman in question.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
