DWP gives update for anyone still missing their Cost of Living Payment
Most people eligible for the Government's £650 Cost of Living Payment should now have received the second instalment, worth £324. The support is part of a number of payments being made to support people on low incomes amid the cost of living crisis.
The funds are paid in addition to the support that people normally receive, because of the particularly difficult economic conditions this year, with inflation reaching a record high of 11.1 per cent in October. The Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announced recently that a similar payment will be made next year, worth £900.
Although the second instalment of this year's grant should now have been paid , some people are yet to receive it. Others are waiting for the £150 Disability Cost of Living Payment, which is paid to people receiving disability benefits such as Attendance Allowance and PIP.
