I can confirm that my Department received correspondence from the person concerned on 22 September 2022, notifying a change of circumstances regarding his disability allowance (DA).
I can confirm that following a review, the person concerned was assessed with nil means from 06 July 2022.
The first payment at the increased rate will be made by the person's chosen payment method on 14 December 2022. The person concerned was notified in writing of this decision on 06 December 2022.
Arrears of payment due from 06 July 2022 to 13 December 2022 will issue as soon as possible once any necessary adjustment is calculated and applied in respect of any overlapping payments (if applicable).
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
