Cost of living payments will provide people some much-needed support over the next few months.
Millions of people have already received the first instalment (£326) of the £650 means-tested cost of living payment from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). A second payment of £324 is due to land in accounts this autumn.
The Daily Record reports people claiming Working Tax Credit or Child Tax Credit from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) will receive their payment of £326 in September, with the second round of support due to be made in the winter. Other payments landing in accounts between September and this winter include £150 for people on disability benefits, £300 added to Winter Fuel Payments for pensioner households and the £400 energy bill rebate.
