Thousands of Nottinghamshire families are due to receive support
Thousands of Nottinghamshire families are set to receive support through the Government's Cost of Living payments this Spring. As part of the £900 support package announced by Jeremy Hunt during November’s Autumn Statement, recipients will receive support through payments which are due to begin to land in people's accounts.As previously reported, a sum of £301 is being paid into accounts from April 25 up to May 17.
Mel Stride, Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, said: “These payments will give a financial boost to more than 8m households as we continue to wrap our arms around the most vulnerable, while the best way we can protect people from high costs is to halve inflation by the end of this year. In the long-term, we know work is the best route out of poverty, which is why we recently announced additional Work Coach support to help more people find work or increase their hours.
The last date for payments for those in receipt of Universal Credit will be May 17, with the dates for families in receipt of Tax Credits and other eligible legacy benefits starting a week later on May 2 until May 9. The Government has refused to release exact dates when the second and third payments will hit people's bank accounts, just Autumn 2023 and Spring 2024. But as it has already stated that payments will all be made in the 2023/2024 financial year.
There will also be a separate £150 for over 6 million disabled people nationwide and £300 for another 8 million pensioners on top of their Winter Fuel Payments to help them meet their energy bills coming later this year.
