    Hi @Northfleet66 :) 

    Can I just check whether you're asking if there'll be a second £150 payment? Or are you referring to a different kind of payment?

    Do you mean the £325 (half of the £650)we got in July? Its due again sometime between 8th and 23 Nov.

    You will be eligible for the second Cost of Living Payment of £324 if you were 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 August 2022 to 25 September 2022.
    Therefore if you had a payment of UC for that assessment period then you will be entitled to the next payment.

    If you are referring to an additional £150 CoL for disability benefit claimants the answer is not under current regulations.
