The Social Security Department said today that most of the applications for children's allowance for the period July 3, 2010 to July 1, 2011 have been processed and the funds will be deposited in the applicants' accounts on July 3.
However applications which arrived after April 3 and those which included incomplete information have not been processed. Such families will receive a provisional payment of €4.81 per week per child in advance and the balance will be paid up once processing work is completed.
