The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed that more than eight million families will receive the first part of the 2023/24 £900 means-tested cost of living payment this Spring.
The UK Government is set to pay out £1,350 in cost of living support over the next financial year. This payment will go to those on a low-income, people claiming disability benefits and pensioner households.
Claimants on qualifying benefits, including Universal Credit, Pension Credit and Tax Credits, will see the first payment for £301 in their bank accounts automatically this Spring - there's no need to apply, reports The Daily Record.
