Some homes in Northern Ireland previously ineligible for the £600 energy support payment can now apply. CostOfLiving
The government initially announced a £400 support payment last May to help homes struggling with the rising cost of living pay their energy bills.
An additional £200 was then announced to account for the high proportion of homes in Northern Ireland that use home heating oil.It was issued either in the form of a voucher sent by post or paid automatically into people's bank accounts, depending on how they paid for electricity.The scheme works differently in the rest of the UK, where households received support every month from October 2022 to March 2023.
While payments in Northern Ireland started later, the lump sum nature of the scheme means it is expected that those households will have received the full amount first.
