Question juridique clé
Whether the insured person was entitled to a moderate helplessness allowance under old-age and survivors insurance law
Solution extraite
The conditions for a helplessness allowance were not met at the legally relevant time.
Motifs extraits
The cantonal court correctly applied the relevant provisions on helplessness. The appeal arguments did not change the result; the ability to prepare meals is irrelevant for the life activity of eating, and any deterioration after the objection decision had to be raised through a new application.
