Data on the amount claimed for Funeral Expenses Payments (FEPs) is not collated centrally and could only be provided at disproportionate cost.<\/p>
<\/p>
The number of FEP applications received by the DWP and awards as a proportion of FEP applications processed, in each calendar year since 2005, are given below in table 1. They are rounded to the nearest 0.1%. Figures are not given for 2018 as the calendar year is incomplete.<\/p>
<\/p>
Due to the timing of application processing, figures on awards may relate to applications processed in the previous year.<\/p>
