Over one million households across the UK receiving Tax Credits will get the second half of the cost of living payment from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) this week.
According to the government, eligible people should expect to receive £324 between Wednesday, November 23, and Wednesday, November 30. It comes after those receiving the DWP cost of living payment will meet the deadline this Wednesday.
HMRC have stated that the payments are being made separately from the DWP payments to help avoid any overlapping or multiple payments being made by accident. The automatic and tax-free payments will land in eligible people's bank accounts so people will not need to apply for cash.
