I don't have a specific answer to your question, but I'm sure we'll be able to find the answer.
I checked on the internet and found this on qualifying, from the UK Govt site:
Eligibility. You qualify for a Winter Fuel Payment if both the following apply: you were born on or before 5 August 1953. you'll be living in the UK for at least one day during the week of 18 to 24 September 2017 - this is called the 'qualifying week'.
If this doesn't answer your question sufficiently, try the link to the 'What benefits am I entitle to?' forum and have a look there:

Others will be along in due course who will know more about this than I do, so hang on in with us
Best wishes to you,
Richard
Are you refering to winter fuel or warm homes scheme ?
