Carer’s allowance was awarded to the person concerned from 11 May 2017. The first payment is expected to issue to their nominated bank account on 13 July 2017.
Arrears of allowance due from 11 May 2017 to 12 July 2017, inclusive of the 2017 carer support grant, should also issue to her nominated bank account on 13 July 2017. She was notified in writing on 7 July 2017.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
