Millions to get DWP £301 cost of living cash over 23-day period - see who qualifies

The UK is just one day away from the next round of cost of living payments. Due to start landing in the bank accounts of those households eligible from Tuesday, April 25, millions across the country will start to receive the £301 payment over the next few weeks - payments are expected to land from Tuesday but will run up until Wednesday, May 17.

The cash is the first of three instalments that make up the £900 cost of living support being handed out by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). Further payments will be sent out in summer 2023 and spring 2024 - although exact timescales are yet to be announced.

To be eligible to receive the money, you must be claiming certain means-tested benefits during a qualifying period. Thanks to Nottinghamshire Live parent publication the Mirror, here is everything you need to know.
