A wide variety of benefits are set to be paid early next week
Some DWP benefit claimants, including those receiving Universal Credit and PIP, may find their payments landing in their accounts earlier than usual in May.
This is due to the Early May bank holiday falling on May 6, which will affect payments scheduled for that date as banks will not be processing benefits. As a result, the Department for Work and Pensions and HM Revenue and Customs will make these payments slightly earlier. This includes Universal Credit, Pension Credit, PIP, and other similar benefits.
If your benefit was due to be paid on May 6, it will instead be paid on the earliest prior working day - May 3. If you are unsure about the date of your benefit or tax credit payments, you can contact your local benefits office for clarification.Will my benefit be paid early next week? The frequency of your benefit payment depends on the type of support you claim.
