Hi Mods

Grateful if I could get some clarity on the Guaranteed Pension Credit autumn 2023 payments.

I recently qualified for Guaranteed Pension Credit after submitting my application 18th October 2023 requesting my claim be backdated to 15th July 2023 by DWP (turned 66) on the 15th..

DWP accepted my claim from the 15th July 2023 and had backpay from said date.

Back to guaranteed pension credit cost of living payment. I think, correct me if I'm wrong, I meet the threshold criteria for PC Col autumn payment 2023 due to my GPC award date from July 2023 covering me for the qualifying period and beyond. Pension Credit qualifying criteria being for any day in the period 13 November 2023 to 12 December 2023.

Don't know if this matters and affects GPCredit autumn 2023 cost of living payment. I've had winter fuel allowance and warm home discount letters to the effect they will and have deposited w' fuel allowance payment (think it included pensioner cost of living payment as well) and the latter will be discounted to me through from my energy supplier and show on the bill when processed.

Sorry if its all disjointed...
