Turas nua and Disability

    I'm in the process of applying for disability allowance. I'm waiting for an appointment with the GP so as they can fill out the form. I can't get an appointment until next Friday because of the large waiting list. But today I received a letter to attend a jobpath group information meeting next Monday, run by turas nua. So once I go to this meeting should I tell them I'm applying for disability allowance on Fri after I see the GP or what do you guys advise to do?.

    Go along and tell them your applying but it can take up to 12 months before you actually get disability ,
    Depending on situation with your health

    Do you know what might happen then. Will I still have to engage with them or will I be taken off their books?. Thanks for replying.

    You will need to engage with Turas Nua until such time your DA application is registered on DSP system. Your journey with Turas Nua will then be paused until such time as a decision is made on your DA application.
