WORKING TAX CREDITS

ROBOCOP12

Will those on Working Tax Credit get the £900 energy cost of living help. I am entitled to the current £650, but i do not know if WTC is classed as a means tested benefit. I have searched the internet and every site i have been on it states very clear that it is a means tested benefit.

It's not the energy cost of living help, it's just called Cost of living Support and you can spend it on anything you want to. Just wanted to make a point of this in case someone reads this and thinks it just for your energy.

Tax credits are also known as means tested benefits, which is why they were included in the COL payments for this year.
