Written answers

The person concerned is in receipt of carer's allowance for one care recipient.

I confirm that the department received an application for carer’s allowance from the person concerned on 9 December 2015. Additional information in relation to the person’s application was requested by a deciding officer on 16 March 2016. Once the information is received the application will be processed without delay and the person concerned will be notified directly of the outcome.
