165. Deputy Sean Sherlock asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection when a decision will be made on a carer's benefit claim by a person (details supplied). [20236/19]
View answerCarer's benefit (CARB) is a PRSI based payment, made to persons who are providing full-time care and attention to a person who has such a disability that they require that level of care.
An application for CARB was received from the person concerned on 13 March 2019. The application is currently being processed and once completed, the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
