From 25 April, millions of households on low incomes will get cost-of-living payments up to £900.
Low-income households will receive the next set of cost-of-living payments between 25 April and 17 May, the Department for Work and Pensions says.
The first instalment of £326 was paid between 14 and 31 July. The second instalment of £324 should have reached those eligible by the end of December. The measures are part of government help towards assisting people with the soaring cost of living, which is rising at a near-record pace. It comes as the £400 energy bill help for all UK residents ends in April.Work and Pensions Secretary Mel Stride said the cost-of-living payments would give a "financial boost" to the most vulnerable.
