Those eligible for the Winter Fuel Payment will get up to £600 towards their heating bills
for the autumn cost of living payment of £300. Not everyone who receives benefits from DWP or HMRC will be eligible for the payment, which is due to hit bank accounts between October 31 and November 19.
This is the second of three payments, up to a total of £900, that the Government will make to those eligible this financial year.
You also do not qualify for the extra payment if your benefit is reduced to £0 for the qualifying period." This is sometimes called a ‘nil award’.Follow our blog for the latest cost of living news, information on DWP payments, Martin Lewis updates and developments on the WASPI campaign.
