An application for carer's allowance (CA) was received from the person concerned on 3 December 2015.
As a result of an appeals officer’s decision, CA was awarded to the person concerned on 28 October 2016 and the first payment will issue to her nominated bank account on 3 November 2016. Arrears for the period 5 November 2015 to 2 November 2016 issue shortly.
The person concerned was notified on 28 October 2016 of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
