    If you get working tax credits, you are not eligible for a CWP. CWP is an out of work benefit.

    Thanks for clearing that up for me. Thought I might be entitled because I recieve low income from my job (hence why I get working tax credits)......oh well, someone else will benefit from it more than me I think.

    Got one 2 days ago to be honest had to look it up, must have got one before but forgotten about it. :o

    We are in the SE so if i'm getting one i'd imagine a lot of places will.

    I've just had the one which was received a day or so ago. CT has only triggered 1 payment so far.

    why cant us workers get the payment? after all we feel the cold too and we dont get any extra wages dues to a temp drop, we just have to budget our cash to last. Scrap the payments i say.

    But you are at work all day, not at home trying to keep warm...
    Be who you are, say what you feel, those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind.
    They say that talking to yourself is a sign of mental illness. So I talk to the cats instead.
