Pensioners due crucial DWP Winter Fuel Payment letter within weeks View Image

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) is poised to dispatch crucial letters to millions of pensioners in the coming weeks as the Government prepares to roll out this year's Winter Fuel Payments.

9 million pensioners across England and Wales are set to receive up to £300 this winter as financial aid through the seasonal benefit.

Pensioners will find out in October if you're due to receive the Winter Fuel Payment when they receive a letter detailing how much and when your payment will arrive.

To qualify for these payments, you must have been born on or before 21 September 1959.

The amount of Winter Fuel Payment you receive depends on your circumstances during the qualifying week of 15 to 21 September.
