- £326 – the first of two cost of living payments – will
automatically hit seven million bank accounts between today and
31 July as part of the Government’s £37 billion support package
- Second instalment of £324 will follow from the Autumn, with
separate payments for pensioners and disabled people also coming
later this year
- Tax credit claimants will receive their first cost of living
instalment by Autumn
Almost one in four families across England, Wales, Scotland and
Northern Ireland will get £326 sent directly to them from today,
with the second instalment of £324 sent later this year as part
of the Government’s £37 billion support package.
Over eight million households on means-tested benefits will
automatically get the first instalment of £326 from this month.
This means that, combined with other support, millions of
low-income households across the UK will receive at least £1,200
from the Government by Christmas to ease cost of living
pressures.
On top of that, nearly one in ten people will get the £150
disability payment this Autumn, and over 8 million pensioner
households could get an extra £300 from Winter Fuel Payments in
November and December.
Prime Minister said:
“Just as we looked after people during lockdown, we will help
them get through these tough economic times.
“Today's payment is the signal to millions of families
that we are on their side and we have already promised more
cash in the Autumn, alongside other measures– including our Help
for Households – to support the vulnerable and ease the
burden.”
Work and Pensions Secretary, Thérèse
Coffey said:
“Our help for households will begin landing in bank accounts
today as we make sure those on the lowest incomes get the support
they need in the face of rising costs.
“This first instalment of £326 should reach all eligible
low-income households by the end of July.”
Chancellor of the Exchequer, said:
“It’s great that millions of the families who are most in need
are starting to receive their cost of living payments, which I
know will be a massive help for people who are struggling.
“Alongside tax cuts, changes to Universal Credit and the
Household Support Fund, these payments are a vital part of our
£37 billion support package to help people deal with rising
prices.”
Most people entitled to the first instalment of our Cost of
Living payment will receive it between now and 31 July.
Households who are eligible because they receive tax credits and
no other eligible benefits will receive their first instalment
from HMRC in the Autumn, and the second instalment in the winter.
DWP will administer payments for customers on all other eligible
means-tested benefits, and customers do not need to contact the
government or apply for the payment at any stage.
In addition to the £650 cost of living payment, all domestic
energy customers in the UK will receive a £400 grant to help with
energy bills, and those in Council Tax bands A-D in England will
get an extra £150, which has already been sent to many
households. This brings support for millions to £1,200 by the end
of the year.
The disability and pensioner payments come in addition to this,
as does any support from the Household Support Fund, which was
recently extended through to March 2023 with £421 million
additional funding. It is now worth £1.263 billion, and combined
with £237 million for devolved nations, means this support
package now stands at £1.5 billion. The Household Support Fund is
designed to help low-income households in England with food and
energy bills, and is distributed by local authorities, who know
their areas best.
Total Government support this year for low-income families stands
at £37 billion, a figure which includes a recent rise to £12,570
for the National Insurance starting thresholds. This will benefit
30 million working people and is worth £330 to a typical
employee.
Ends.
Notes to Editors
- Low-income households are benefiting from Government support
in a variety of different ways. You can read more about the
Government’s cost of living support and what is available
here.
- More than 8 million households on benefits will receive a
payment of up to £650 this year, made in two instalments. This
includes all households entitled to a payment of the following
benefits: Universal Credit, Income-based Jobseekers Allowance,
Income-related Employment and Support Allowance, Income Support,
Working Tax Credit, Child Tax Credit and Pension Credit.
- The DWP will make the payment in two lump sums – the first
from July, the second from the Autumn. Payments from HMRC for
those on tax credits only will follow shortly after each to avoid
duplicate payments.
- Universal Credit for an assessment period that ended in
the period 26 April 2022 to 25 May 2022
- income-based JSA, income-related ESA, Income Support or
Pension Credit for any day in the period 26 April 2022 to 25
May 2022
-
- To be eligible for the first instalment, families must
have been entitled to a payment (or later found to be
entitled to a payment) of either:
- Tax credit-only customers, who will receive the first
instalment in the Autumn, must have received a payment, or an
annual award of at least £26, of tax credits for any day in
the period 26 April 2022 to 25 May 2022.
- This payment will be tax-free, will not count towards the
benefit cap, and will not have any impact on existing benefit
awards.
- These lump sums will be delivered in two slightly
different payments of £326 and £324. The distinct value
relates to a specific qualifying period, so it is simpler to
determine if a payee received the correct payments,
reducing the fraud risk of people who claim not to have had
one of the specific two payments, as DWP will be able to
clearly track those who have.
- We estimate that around 23% of families in the UK will be
eligible for the first instalment of the means-tested benefit
cost of living payment.
- Dates for the additional payments to disabled people and
pensioners will be confirmed soon.
- Please note that the tables below measure slightly different
groups – this is because entitlement to means-tested benefits is
done by family, whereas disability entitlement is done for
individuals (so one family could have multiple disability
payments).
