An application for carer's benefit (CARB) was received from the person concerned on 31 July 2017.
Additional information was requested from the person concerned on 9 October 2017 in relation to hospital admittance and discharge dates. Once the information is received the application will be processed without delay and she will be notified directly of the outcome.
In the meantime, the person concerned is currently in receipt of a supplementary welfare allowance from her local Intreo Office.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
