DWP warning more than 850k households to miss out on £900 cost of living payment
Around 850,000 households are set to miss out on a £900 cost of living payment. This is because only those who receive certain benefits will be given the payment.
To be eligible for the payment, you must be in receipt of at least one of: Income-based jobseeker’s allowance, income-related employment and support allowance, income support, pension credit, tax credits, housing benefit, council tax support, social fund or Universal Credit.However, it is thought that around 850,000 households do not claim pension credit - despite being eligible. In not doing so, they could also be missing out on the £900 cost of living payment.
People who are retired and have a low income could get more than £3,500 support each year through pension credit. Claimants can also get three months worth of backdated payments. What is Pension Credit? Pension Credit gives you extra money to help with your living costs if you’re over State Pension age and on a low income. Pension Credit can also help with housing costs such as ground rent or service charges.
