Carer's allowance (CA) is a means-tested social assistance payment made to a person who is habitually resident in the State and who is providing full-time care and attention to a person who has such a disability that they require that level of care.
An application for carer's allowance (CA) was received from the person concerned on 29 December 2017.
Additional information was requested on 4 April 2018. Once this information is received the application will be processed and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
