    You will receive the £150 in September because of your PIP.

    Universal Credit

    To get the first Cost of Living Payment of £326, you must have been entitled to a payment (or later found to be entitled to a payment) of Universal Credit for an assessment period that ended in the period 26 April 2022 to 25 May 2022.

    Full details here. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/cost-of-living-payment
