DWP to hand out £1,350 in cost-of-living payments – check what you are due and when this year

The payment schedule for the next wave of cost-of-living support has been announced. The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has detailed when a potential £1,350 will be paid to those who are eligible.

The help is aimed at people claiming disability benefits and pensioner households. The next round of support is expected to help millions of families across Nottinghamshire through the ongoing economic crisis.

The DWP also confirmed that up to £900 in cash support for over eight million eligible means-tested benefits claimants will be made in three instalments – and that there is no need to claim. Claimants on qualifying benefits including Universal Credit, Pension Credit and Tax Credits will see the first payment for £301 land in their bank accounts automatically this Spring.
