Millions of households across the UK will receive £300 directly from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) between 31 October and 19 November.
This is the second of 3 payments totalling up to £900 supporting eligible people on means-tested benefits with the cost of living.
Payments make up part of government’s record financial support for the most vulnerable worth an average of £3,300 per household.
Tax credits-only customers who do not qualify for a payment from DWP will receive £300 from HMRC between 10 and 19 November 2023.
