<p>Information on the total number of applications, claims paid and the overall amount
paid out by the scheme is available to view on GOV.UK at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/windrush-compensation-scheme-data-may-2020.</p><p>
</p><p>We are processing claims as quickly as possible, but all claims are different,
and the time taken will depend on many factors, including the complexity of the case.
We are committed to working with the claimant to ensure all possible information is
taken into account and this will have an impact on the length of time it takes to
process the claim. Wherever possible, we will make interim payments on parts of the
claim that are straightforward to determine, such as immigration fees, thereby speeding
up the provision of compensation.</p><p> </p><p>Our recently published statistics
on the payments made under the Windrush Compensation Scheme, show a clear increasing
trajectory of payments: £362,997 paid in the first 12 months of the scheme, of which
£300,799 was paid in the most recent three months of that period.</p>
