2nd cost of living payment for uc

[bg21]

I know there's been alot of threads on this but most have been taken over by people on dla or tax credits , but I want to know has anyone on UC had the payment yet or know anything lol x

Not UC but ESA here and have heard nothing. Received the first payment in July and the £150 payment yesterday but not the £324.

Recieved the first payment in summer.
Nothing about the second payment - slightly concerned though as we had a month with a NIL payment as DP wages were paid in advance of annual leave so it tipped us over. Pretty sure the assessment period will be around that time 😭

Not a 100% sure ...but I think it was between 1st October onwards .

Deff October.

Ahh okay , I had read it would be in before the 1st of October.

They haven't even decided when the qualifying period will be according to the HMRC website. We get tax credits rather than UC and ours just says the payment will be From Winter 2022, so December/January?

Not going to be til next month
