Married, divorced and widowed women over the State Pension age may be due more than £9,000 in backdated pay.
A recent report by the watchdog that oversees the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has announced that approximately 237,000 people over the State Pension age have been accumulatively underpaid £1.46 billion.
According to the National Audit Office (NAO) report, this marks an increase of £429 million and around 105,000 pensioners compared with the DWP's estimate at the end of 2020-21.
