- HMRC says the payments will be reclaimed on the 2025 to 2026 tax return due by 31 January 2027, with recovery via Self Assessment or PAYE code adjustments.
- The DWP warned pensioners to be vigilant for scam texts and to forward suspicious messages to 7726, with a claim deadline by the end of March.
