The person concerned resided in Direct Provision accommodation up to June 2008, pending a decision from the Department of Justice regarding her permission to remain in Ireland.
Her claim to child benefit has been disallowed for the period prior to June 2008 as she did not satisfy the Habitual Residence Condition. This decision was appealed on two occasions, in March 2008 and again in January 2012. Both appeals were disallowed.
The file has again been reviewed. However, as there are no new facts or information in this case, there is nothing to warrant revising the earlier decision.
