The payment aims to provide financial support to those on specific disability benefits.
Automatic Payments Scheduled between June 20 and July 4:
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has announced that the majority of eligible recipients will receive the payment automatically.
This process will take place over a two-week period, commencing from June 20 and concluding on July 4.

Recipients do not need to take any action to receive the payment.
Exceptions for Delayed Payments:
A small percentage of individuals may receive their payments after the scheduled dates mentioned above.
This delay may occur for claimants who were still awaiting confirmation of their eligibility or entitlement to disability benefits as of April 1.
Additionally, pensioners can anticipate further payments of £300 later this year.
Eligibility Criteria for the Disability Cost of Living Payment:
Recipients of various benefits are eligible for the upcoming Disability Cost of Living Payment.
