DWP Universal Credit payment dates expected to change over five bank holidays in April and May 2023
Brits will enjoy five bank holidays across April and May, with an extra day off coming thanks to the King's Coronation. For people receiving Universal Credit, the State Pension, or other benefits, this may mean changes to the dates on which they are paid.
As benefits are paid on working days, the Department for Work and Pensions generally changes payment dates if they fall on bank holidays. Claimants will usually receive their money on the working day before it was due, so for instance if you are meant to be paid on Good Friday or Easter Monday , you will get it on Thursday, April 6.This has been what has happened in previous years, according to the Manchester Evening News.
Those expecting a payment on Monday, May 8, will most likely receive it on Friday, May 5. And those with a payment due on Monday, May 29, will probably receive it on Friday, May 26.
