The £900 cost of living payment is being paid to people on means-tested benefits in three instalments starting from spring 2023
The Government says that over eight million means-tested benefits claimants will qualify for the grant.
Just like the previous £650 support from last year payments will be tax-free, will not count towards the benefit cap, and will not have any impact on existing benefit awards. The Work and Pensions Secretary Mel Stride, said: “We are sticking by our promise to protect the most vulnerable and these payments, worth hundreds of pounds, will provide vital support next year for those on the lowest incomes.”When will the £900 cost of living payment be paid?starting in springEach instalment will be a slightly different amount, which makes it easier for DWP and HMRC to track which grants people have received, in order to minimise fraud risk.
Exact payment windows will be announced closer to the time, but are spread across a longer period to ensure a consistent support offering throughout the year, the DWP said. Its initial guideline timeframe is as follows:£299 – third payment during spring 2024 Claimants who are eligible for any of the payments and receive tax credits, and no other means-tested benefits, will receive payment from HMRC shortly after DWP payments are issued, as was the case with the previous £650 grant.
