Hi all
My mother passed away last April. Prior to that she had been resident in a nursing home for approx. three and a half years. She was on the fair deal scheme but didn't avail of the loan. As part of her original application we submitted a schedule of income and assets to the HSE. Since she passed away HSE have requested a copy of the schedule of assets prepared by the solicitor for the probate process. Mum had only one major asset, her home, which was recently valued for probate purposes plus small amounts in the bank and credit union. There is an increase of approx €95K in the value of the property between the June 2013 valuation and the recent one.
I'm concerned that this may leave me open to a claim or claw back by the fair deal scheme. Could someone who has experience of this process enlighten me please.
Brendan,feel free to move to more appropriate forum as necessary.
Thanks in advance.
