    You need to explain more.

    Was it exactly £200?

    What do you mean that 'it hasnt come again'?

    I am really confused now.

    How often do you receive your benefits, and for how long have you received them?

    The reason I am confused is that you are not giving us any information to work with!

    The payment is likely to relate to the changing of how some benefits are being paid, and some are now being paid four weekly unless you request otherwise. My guess is that this is the new payment for Carers.

    The only way to check for sure is to call the DWP when they open today.
