I confirm that my department received an application for carer’s allowance (CA) from the person concerned on 22 May 2018.
The application was awarded to the person concerned on 12 September 2018 with effect from 24 May 2018. The first payment issued to her nominated bank account on 20 September 2018.
Arrears of allowance due from 24 May 2018 to 19 September 2018 issued on 20 September 2018.
The person concerned was notified on 12 September 2018 of this decision, the reason for it and of her right of review and appeal.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
