Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 May 2019
477. Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection when a decision will be made on a working family payment application by a person (details supplied) in County Donegal; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [22771/19]
View answerWorking Family Payment (WFP) is an in-work family payment which provides additional income support to employees on low earnings with children.
An application for WFP was received from the person concerned on 08 May 2019.
In order to process their application, further information is required from them. The Department wrote to the person concerned on 23 May 2019 to request additional details.
On receipt of the requested information from the person concerned, their WFP application will be processed without delay and they will be notified of the decision.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
