I confirm that the person concerned was in receipt of disability allowance (DA) from 23 September 2004 to 19 May 2015. Following a review of entitlement, it was established that the circumstances of the person in question had changed and that the person concerned had means not previously disclosed to the department.
On 4 December 2015, a deciding officer made a revised decision that the person concerned had no entitlement to DA from 2 January 2013 to 19 May 2015, resulting in an overpayment.
The person concerned has been notified of this decision and of their right of appeal to the Social Welfare Appeals Office within 21 days of the date of the notification.
