Over 1.3m social welfare recipients are set to receive a €200 cash boost later this month.
The spring bonus cost of living payment will be paid out the week of April 24, depending on what day of the week your payment is due. It will be issued alongside your main qualifying payment in that week.
The payment is being issued to people in receipt of long-term social welfare payments. This will be paid to the primary recipients of the payments that receive the Christmas Bonus.
