Step 2

On the ‘Application Summary� screen.

If a household breakdown message displays

  • make a note of the date of the household breakdown
  • where the household breakdown is 06/04/20XX (CY) or later there will be some CY entitlement.

If a 05/04/20XX message displays, the customer has not returned their Annual Declaration and therefore there is no CY entitlement.

If no message displays, go to Step 3.

Step 3

On the ‘Application Summary� screen, check the ‘Status� field.

If the status is ‘Award Issued�, the customer has CY entitlement.

If the status is ‘Awaiting Award�, the customer’s CY entitlement has not yet been established.

If the status is ‘Rejected�, the customer has no CY entitlement.

If the status is ‘Withdrawn�, the customer has no CY entitlement.

Note: a ‘Finalised Award� or ‘Ceased� claim means that the customer may have CY entitlement depending on the date that the claim ceased.
