An application for carer's allowance (CA) was received from the person concerned on 16 June 2016.
As a result of an appeals officer’s decision, CA was awarded to the person concerned on 10 February 2017 and the first payment will issue to her nominated post office on 16 February 2017. Arrears for the period 16 June 2016 to 15 February 2017 have also issued.
The person concerned was notified on 10 February 2017 of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
