    Hi @Chris3006, welcome to the community. Hope you're well today ☺️

    If you've found any websites or articles saying there will be cost of living payments going out this year, they are not correct. There are no additional cost of living payments planned at the moment. There's lots of misleading information out there and I've even seen AI generated videos with this information on it, so it's not easy to avoid sometimes!

    Anything official would always be reported on the government website, so that's the best place to check these things.

    Sorry to bring disappointing news!

    Glad to hear you're doing okay for money @Chris3006, are you already living in the place your mum has bought for you or will you be moving house soon?
