The Person concerned reapplied for Jobseekers Allowance (JA) on 15/07/2024. This application was disallowed on the grounds that the person concerned was not available for full time work and a disallowance letter issued on 31/07/2024.

This decision was appealed by the person concerned. Having reviewed the facts and contentions advanced a reviewing officer found no new reason to revise the original decision and the appeal has now been submitted to the Social Welfare Appeals Office for decision.

The person concerned is currently in receipt of a Basic Supplementary Allowance payment and has also applied for Disability Allowance.
