Amharc ar fhreagraI confirm that my department received an application for carer's benefit from the person concerned on 22 November 2016. Additional information in relation to the person’s application was requested by a deciding officer on 12 January 2017. Once the information is received the application will be processed without delay and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
