Hi all,
I am hoping someone can help me here or has some experience of moving from Illness Benefit to Invalidity Pension.
Basically I got a letter stating that my Invalidity Pension was granted and would start from the 29/05/14 and that my first payment would be on the 14/08/2014.
I was still in receipt of of Illness Benefit until 29/07/2014 where I received 3 days worth of payment €94.00. Since the 30/07/2014 to today 14/08/2014 I haven't received any other payments from Illness Benefit only one Invalidity Pension payment for €193.50 (received today).
The letter I received from Invalidity Pension states the following:
1: "you are due this pension from 29/05/2014.
2: "your current payment will be paid up to the day your Invalidity Pension starts".
3: "any arrears of payment due to you, less overpayments if applicable, will issue to you".
From my estimation I was due arrears from the 29/05/2014. Difference from Invalidity Pension and Ilness Benefit for the weeks from 29/5/2014 until 31/07/2014 plus two full weeks for the 07/08/2014 & 14/08/2014. As I mentioned above I have only received one full payment for this week.
My question is when will the arrears arrive. Would it be paid to my bank a/c direct or by cheque or do I again have to start chasing them?
Thanks in advance to anyone for their advice on this.
