Millions of households are set to receive cost of living payments in the next two months.
The government has announced households receiving means-tested benefits will get these payments in three instalments.
The first payment of £301 will be made in spring, followed by the second payment of £300 in autumn and the final payment of £299 will be given in the spring of 2024 – totalling up to £900.
Households will receive the first payment between 25 April and 17 May.
