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.
Following an appeal to the Social Welfare Appeals Office, the person concerned has been awarded invalidity pension with effect from 2 February 2017 and payment will issue to her nominated bank account on 29 November 2018.
Any arrears due from 2 February 2017 to 28 November 2018 (less any overlapping social welfare payment) will issue in due course.
The person concerned was notified of this decision on 12 November 2018.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
