I confirm that my department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 6 June 2017.
The application was awarded to the person concerned on 28 September 2017 and the first payment will issue to her nominated bank account on 12 October 2017.
Arrears of allowance due from 8 June 2017 to 11 October 2017 will issue shortly.
The person concerned was notified on 28 September 2017 of this decision, the reason for it and of her right of review and appeal.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
