Invalidity pension (IP) is a payment for people who are permanently incapable of work because of illness or incapacity and who satisfy the pay related social insurance (PRSI) contribution conditions.
A claim for IP was received from the person concerned on the 16 June 2015. The person concerned was initially refused IP on medical grounds. However, following review, the deciding officer (DO) is satisfied that the medical conditions for the scheme are satisfied.
The person in question has claimed an increase for a qualified adult (IQA). A DO has requested further information from the person in question in order to assess eligibility for an IQA. As soon as this information has been received the claim will be decided as quickly as possible and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
