supplementry welfare allowance to Invalidity Pension?

omega42

I Have just been awarded Invalidity Pension after applying for it in April Last year. Between then and now I have been receiving supplementary welfare allowance @ a rate of €340.60 (Married with 1 kid).

I have been given the Pension @ €361.40

It says on the letter the following

" I have examined your entitlement to invalidity Pension and have decided that you are due this pension from 05/04/2012"

It also says further on in the letter

"Any arrears of payment due to you less any over payments if applicable, will issue to you"

Does this mean that I will get the difference in payment from SWA to IP IE
€20.80 X 56 weeks

Thanks for looking and thanks for helping

If everything runs perfectly smoothly with Invalidity Pension & the CWO in theory it should...but I wouldn't guarantee it. You should have the arrears quick enough though

Your arrears aren't calculated until after your IP goes into payment & will be sent by post in the form of a payable order. This could take anything from 4 - 12 weeks.
