Temperatures are dropping and daylight hours are getting shorter which means more households are set to start switching on the heating to help keep out the seasonal chill. However, it’s important to remember there’s no buffer from the UK Government’s £400 Energy Bill Support Scheme to look forward to this winter.
Changes to the scheme introduced last year mean different rules apply in Scotland, England and Wales. Eligibility is determined by an individual’s circumstances on the qualification date . People in receipt of Tax Credits and no other qualifying benefit from the DWP will receive the £300 payment directly from HM Revenue and Customs between November 10 and November 19, 2023. Payments will appear on accounts as either ‘DWP COL’, or ‘HMRC COLS’, along with the claimant’s National Insurance number.
The payment was made during February and March this year and is expected to follow the same pattern this winter - more details here. If you did not meet either of these qualifying criteria, or if you live abroad, you may need to make a claim. If you’ve had a Winter Fuel Payment before, you do not need to claim again unless you’ve deferred your State Pension or moved abroad - find out more here.November 15: October CPI inflation rate This is one to keep an eye on as it may influence Chancellor Jeremy Hunt’s Autumn Statement, especially if the October Consumer Price Index inflation rate does not fall - it was 6.
