DWP confirms when people will get £150 disability cost of living payment

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed when millions of households can expect to receive their £150 disability cost of living payment. Made in addition to the Cost of Living payments, worth up to a total of £900 over a 12 months period, this one-off payment will be made to people claiming certain disability benefits.

More than 6 million people are eligible for the payment, according to the DWP. Some claimants have already received the first of three Cost of Living payment installments, which were made between April 25 and May 17, with a further two payments - worth £300 and £299 - heading into bank accounts in Autumn 2023 and Spring 2024.

The disability Cost of Living payment will fall in between the first and second Cost of Living payment and claimants can expect to see the money between June 20 and July 4. Some may receive their money after this period if currently waiting for a benefit claim to be approved, the Mirror reports.
