Hi @Uka, and a warm welcome to the community!

The following information is from the BBC News website:

How do claimants know if they are entitled to a rebate?

Anyone affected will be contacted by the DWP and all backdated payments should be made by the end of 2019.

A spokesman for the department said the process of contacting people entitled to repayments may take some time.

There are 400 DWP officials working through cases, with more expected to be employed in the next month.
