What is DWP ISCS?

Question

I am currently on income support (had a little girl last year) and today i found a large amount of money had been paid into my bank account with my national insurance number then dwp iscs next to it. I know that dwp is the department of working pentions however ‘iscs’ is a mystery to me and was hoping someone could shed some light on it. I will be ringing the dwp in the morning as they have been closed since i discovered it about an hour ago. But if someone knows what it is or why they have paid it into my account then i would love it if you could let me know so i can sort it out asap and not sound so clueless when i phone them in the morning. I would be grateful for any help anybody can offer. Thank you (From uk, lancashire)

What Does Iscs Stand For

It’s an abbreviation for income support payment! It could be back pay owed hence the large amount. I would phone them just be sure, however I would suggest you don’t spend it until certain, as it could have been paid in error. We know how DWP works in mysterious ways and backed by a government that also never knows left from right without being told half the time!
