More than one million people are in line for a cost-of-living payment on April 24 amid the ongoing cost-of-living crisis.
The boost was confirmed in addition to Budget 2023 by the Department of Social Protection with an estimated 1.3 million people benefiting from it.
Those in line for the payment include pensioners, carers, people with disabilities, lone parents, widows and widowers.

However, this list is non-exhaustive and anyone receiving a long-term social welfare payment is entitled to it.
The €200 sum is also being extended to those on the Working Family Payment who have not received the lump sum on their primary payment.
More supports are also on the way for families impacted by the cost-of-living crisis amid concerns as inflation causes issues for many households.
Parents can expect a €100 boost to their child benefit payment in June, which will likely be issued on June 2 due to the bank holiday.
This payment forms part of a social protection package organised by the Government.
