The Department for Work and Pensions has unveiled details about two groups of claimants who will not receive the first instalment of the £650 cost of living payment in July.
People began receiving the first £326 sum in their bank accounts on July 14, with approximately 99 per cent of eligible claimants getting it by July 20. The money is intended to help those struggling amid the worsening cost of living crisis.
The DWP previously admitted that some people who are in “more complex circumstances” would likely need to wait longer before receiving their money. It has since confirmed that these individuals will not be paid in July.
