The Person concerned applied for Fuel Allowance on the 18th October 2021, They were contacted by the Deciding officer on the 19th of October 2021 and advised to submit a letter of attendance for either School or University in respect of their child who is over 18 years of age. This documentation is required to ascertain if there is an entitlement to fuel in the household.
