A newly released report by the National Audit Office has revealed that approximately 237,000 people of State Pension age have been collectively underpaid £1.46 billion by the Department for Work and Pensions .
As reported by the Daily Record, the DWP is working alongside HMRC to learn more about the cases of underpayment, including the possible causes and how to correct them. These newly discovered mistakes are the primary cause of the State Pension underpayment rate rising from 0.3% to 0.5%. According to the NAO, the rise in the number of underpayments is due to the DWP undertaking computerised analyses of its data in order to identify cases needing reviewing.
It also stated that it intends to increase the number of employees working on case reviews from 500 to 1,500 in order to ensure the task is completed by next December. However, the NAO stated that on current assessments, review and correction of all widowed pensioner cases not be completed until the end of 2024.
