As the cost of living crisis continues, more much-needed financial help for those on low incomes is on its way.
With energy bills still high, and council tax and water bills having risen back in April – plus the cost of phones and broadband going up – many households are feeling the squeeze.
A raft of new Cost of Living Payments are due over the course of 2023/24, with the first having been rolled out earlier this year.
But when should you have received the first payment by, and when can we expect the second?
Here’s all you need to know.
When was the first Cost of Living Payment paid?
The first of three Cost of Living Payments began rolling out in late April through to mid May.
Those eligible for the helping hand should have received £301 between April 25 and May 17.

If you’re eligible, it should have been paid the way you usually receive your benefits or tax credits, with a banking reference of ‘DWP COL’ or ‘HMRC COL’ respectively.
When is the second Cost of Living payment due to be paid?
A second Cost of Living Payment of £300 is expected to arrive in autumn 2023.
No exact payment date has been announced at the time of writing, but one will surely be announced nearer the time.
Following this, a third Cost of Living Payment of £299 is set to arrive sometime in early 2024.

Those eligible will be receiving at least one of the following benefits:
Universal Credit Income-based Jobseekers’ Allowance Income-related Employment and Support Allowance Income Support Working Tax Credit Child Tax Credit Pension Credit.Again, this money is paid directly into bank accounts and there is no need to apply. If you’re eligible, you should receive it.
Are there any other Cost of Living Payments for 2023/24?
