More than eight million households across the UK will start receiving a £301 cost-of-living support payment from the UK government from Tuesday.
It is the first of three payments, totalling up to £900, for those eligible and on means-tested benefits, such as universal credit or pension credit, in 2023/24.
The first payment will be made between April 25 and May 17.
The Department for Work and Pensions will send payments automatically and directly to recipients’ bank accounts, with a reference of their national insurance number followed by ‘DWP COL’.
Work and Pensions Secretary Mel Stride said: ‘This latest additional payment will be welcomed by millions of families as will further payments due over the next year.’
