As energy prices are set to soar again, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed the dates for when people receiving tax credits will be paid the first half of the £650 Cost of Living payment.
Those who receive benefits such as Universal Credit or Income-based JSA, should have got the Cost of Living payments by the end of July whereas those who receive Tax Credit will have to wait a little longer.
The DWP have confirmed that the first half of the Cost of Living Payments will go out to most people on Tax Credit in September 2022. However there are some exceptions and the Government has not yet set the date of the second instalment of £324.
