answer text

The Disability Cost of Living Payment is a Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) led one-off payment of £150 that came into effect in September 2022. As at 30 November 2022 a total of 5,323 Disability Cost of Living payments of £150 have been made by Veterans UK to veterans who are in receipt of a qualifying Ministry of Defence (MOD) disability benefit only. The total amount paid is therefore £798,450. Please note that if a Veteran is in receipt of a qualifying disability benefit from the MOD and a qualifying disability benefit from DWP, they will get a Disability Cost of Living Payment from DWP only.
