Fuel Allowance is payable to people who satisfy the conditions of the scheme and who either live alone or only with certain qualified people.
The person concerned must complete a Fuel Allowance application form and submit it to the Department in order to have their eligibility assessed and a formal decision made.
To date, no application for fuel allowance has been received from the person concerned. An application form for fuel allowance issued to the person on 17 October 2024. Alternatively, they can apply online through their MyGovID account. A deciding officer will then review their entitlement to the allowance.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
