The first of three cost of living support payments has been delayed until next week, according to the Department for Work and Pensions. It is anticipated that just over half of the eight million homes eligible for the £301 cost of living increase received their payment earlier this week.
The DWP is thought to have given out 1.6 million payments of £301 each day this week to a total of 4.8 million claimants on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. However, the DWP announced on Thursday evening (April 27) that payments will resume on Tuesday, May 2.
