You may be able to get up to 5 payments to help with the cost of living if you’re getting certain benefits or tax credits. Please refer to the drop-down columns for more information about the specific payments.
You can check your eligibility for these payments here.
You do not need to apply. If you’re eligible, you’ll be paid automatically in the same way you usually get your benefit or tax credits. If you have had a message about a payment this may be a scam. More information about reporting these can be accessed here.
