New £150 disability cost of living payment update for people due money from next week
An estimated 6.7 million people claiming disability benefits across Scotland, England and Wales are set to receive a one-off payment of £150 from the Department for Work and Pensions between Tuesday, June 20 and Tuesday, July 4. While there is no set payment pattern, DWP has updated online guidance to advise people when it can be reported missing, if it fails to arrive during the two-week window.
The guidance on GOV.UK states: “You will be able to report a missing Disability Cost of Living Payment from 5 July 2023. Do not contact us before then as we will not be able to take any action.” For those people awaiting confirmation of their entitlement to disability benefits on April 1, or who are waiting to be assessed for eligibility to receive disability benefits, the payment process may take longer and arrive after the scheduled window closes on July 4, but DWP said the money will still arrive automatically.
