£150 disability cost-of-living support
£150 disability cost-of-living support payment dates announced
The government has confirmed that disabled children and adults will receive their second £150 disability cost-of-living support payment between 20 June and 4 July this year.
As with last year’s payment, parent carers who have multiple children on disability benefits will get a separate payment for each child.
Eligibility criteria
To be eligible for the one-off £150 sum, individuals must have been in receipt of (or have begun an eventually successful claim for) one of these qualifying benefits as of 1 April 2023:
- Disability Living Allowance (DLA).
- Personal Independence Payment (PIP).
- Child Disability Payment (in Scotland).
- Adult Disability Payment (in Scotland).
- Attendance Allowance.
- Constant Attendance Allowance.
- Armed Forces Independence Payment.
- War Pension Mobility Supplement.
There is no need to apply. If you’re eligible, you’ll be paid automatically in the same way you usually get your benefit.
Most people will receive their non-taxable payment between 20 June and 4 July 2023. But your payment may arrive later if, for example, you’re awarded a qualifying benefit at a later date, or if you change the account your benefit is paid into.
