Martin Lewis urges households earning under £30,000 to check if they can claim extra cash

All households that earn less than £30,000 have been urged to check whether they can claim extra cash through benefits amid the ongoing cost of living crisis.

Martin Lewis explained that not everyone with a household income of less than £30,000 will be eligible for benefits. The MoneySavingExpert founder said this is his rough benchmark figure for when it is worth investigating.

He also said it only takes ten minutes to check online and urged people to check. Some families with an income of £50,000 or more could also qualify for help in certain circumstances, the Mirror reports.
