Hopes to move service to digital platform in due course
There’s been a 'significant' increase in the number of Disability Living Allowance claims being received by Treasury.
The Social Security Division says extra resources are being allocated in the hopes of alleviating some pressure and workload.
Numerous listeners have contacted Manx Radio with concerns about delays to the service.
The division says work is underway to digitise social security services in future due to the 'challenging' physical form currently in operation.
Residents who require further assistance are asked to contact the Disability Benefits Team:
- Markwell House on weekdays between 9am and 1pm
- Ramsey Town Hall on Tuesdays from 9.15am to 1pm and 1.45pm to 4.30pm
