The Department received an application for Disability Allowance (DA) from the person concerned on 4 January 2024.
On 22 January 2024, the person was requested to supply supporting documentation required by the deciding officer in order to make a decision on their eligibility.
On receipt of this information, a decision will be made on their DA application and the person will be notified of the outcome.
In the meantime, the person concerned may apply to the Community Welfare Service for the means tested Supplementary Welfare Allowance if they are in need of financial assistance while awaiting the outcome of their application.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
