Notes for table 

In the above table: 

  • percentages are rounded the nearest whole number, therefore totals may not sum due to rounding
  • a full claim is defined as a claim which DBT considers, with advice from its legal advisors, does not need any further evidence in order to assess every element of the claim. Should the Department consider further evidence is needed in order to make a full assessment, the 40-working day target will not start until such time that the required evidence is received from the claimant or any other source
