The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has shared that 99% of the claimants who are eligible for the disability cost of living payment have received it. The £150 one-off payments are a part of a wider support package worth up to £1,350 to help the most vulnerable UK households.
The payments were expected to be sent out over a two-week window between June 20 and July 4. However, the distribution is now mostly complete with more than six million disabled people across the UK, reports Lancs Live.
It means that the majority of eligible claimants have now received their payment. As the payment is made automatically, those eligible for the support do not need to take any action.
