An application for carer's allowance (CA) was received from the person concerned on 24 February 2016.
As a result of an appeals officer’s decision the application was awarded to the person concerned on 28 October 2016 and the first payment will issue to her nominated post office on 3 November 2016. Arrears for the period 25 February 2016 to 2 November 2016 have also issued to the post office.
The person concerned was notified on 28 October 2016 of this decision.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
