A ONE-off payment worth \u00a3185 is set to hit thousands of bank accounts in the coming weeks. <\/p>\n
Councils across the country are offering to help out Brits who are struggling with money as we approach Christmas. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The cash comes via the Household Support Fund\u00a0(HSF) which is worth \u00a3842million.<\/p>\n
Councils in\u00a0England\u00a0have been given a share of the fund and are distributing it to residents in need.<\/p>\n
That means what you are entitled to varies depending on where you live, but in most cases you will receive help if you are on a low income or\u00a0benefits.<\/p>\n
City of York Council\u00a0is one of those, and is paying out \u00a3185 next month as part of the HSF. <\/p>\n
Locals who the council thought might be eligible were sent an email at the end of April.<\/p>\n These people are working-age households who get council tax support. <\/p>\n Those people and families would have received one lot of \u00a3185, and are set to see another lump sum arrive in their bank account next month. <\/p>\n However, people who are struggling and missed out on the cash can apply for another grant by March 31, next year. <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n There are conditions though – families must be in need of \u201curgent financial assistance and not have enough income or savings to meet the eligible costs the scheme can help with\u201d.<\/p>\n It comes as thousands of households in Leeds were told they could get \u00a3100 free cash in cost of living payments.<\/p>\n Just days ago it was also revealed millions of households will start receiving a tax-free payment worth \u00a3300 within days.<\/p>\n The\u00a0cost of living\u00a0payment from the\u00a0Government\u00a0is being made to Brits on certain\u00a0benefits\u00a0including\u00a0Universal Credit.<\/p>\n Those eligible won't have to do anything as it will land in accounts automatically between October 31 and November 19.<\/p>\n The\u00a0tax-free\u00a0cash\u00a0will show up in\u00a0bank\u00a0statements as your\u00a0National Insurance\u00a0number followed by either DWP COL or HMRC COLS.<\/p>\n Households on tax credits eligible for the payment will receive it from HMRC instead of the DWP between November 10 and 19.<\/p>\n Those eligible won't have to do anything as it will land in accounts automatically between October 31 and November 19.<\/p>\n The\u00a0tax-free\u00a0cash\u00a0will show up in\u00a0bank\u00a0statements as your\u00a0National Insurance\u00a0number followed by either DWP COL or HMRC COLS.<\/p>\n Households on tax credits eligible for the payment will receive it from HMRC instead of the DWP between November 10 and 19.<\/p>\n<\/picture>PAY OUT <\/span><\/p>\n
