ELIGIBLE Brits will begin receiving the second instalment of this year’s Cost of Living payment from today.
Overall, Brits on means-tested benefits will be granted £900 to help with bills and the soaring cost of living in three separate payments.
Households on certain benefits, including Universal Credit, will receive the £300 payment directly into their bank accounts from today, October 31, with the last payments being sent on November 19.
Those eligible for the tax-free payment won’t have to do anything as it will be made automatically.
The full list of benefits that qualify people for the payment includes: Universal Credit; income-based jobseekers allowance; income-related employment and support allowance; income support; working tax credit; child tax credit and pension credit.
