The Department for Work and Pensions could owe thousands of people a payment of up to £12,000 due to a legal error.There are 21 health conditions that make you most likely to receive the money, due to a legal error relating to points awarded for Personal Independence Payments (PIP).Results of this error forced DWP to pay out £18 million already to those people who were refused PIP or were left with lower payments after their PIP points were not high enough and did not qualify them.
As reported by BirminghamLive, one gentlemen received a staggering payout of £12,000 from DWP after his case was reviewed along side two requests and an attempt to take DWP to a tribunal.
