On review of the further evidence, carer’s allowance was awarded to the person concerned on 11 January 2017. The first payment is due to issue to her nominated bank account on 19 January 2017. Arrears of allowance due from 15 September 2016 to 11 January 2017 have also issued.

The person concerned was notified of these details on 11 January 2017.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
