The appeal of the person concerned against a refusal of carer’s allowance (CA) has been allowed and the application was awarded on 5 May 2016.
The first payment of CA is due to issue to her nominated post office on 26 May 2016. Arrears of CA due from 6 August 2015 to 25 May 2016 less Jobseeker’s Allowance paid during period, will issue shortly. The person concerned was notified of these details on the 5 May 2016.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
