It can be useful to know when your DWP payments will arrive so you can budget accordingly
Benefit payments from the Department for Work and Pensions will change this month for many claimants.
People who receive Universal Credit, Personal Independence Payments , Employment and Support Allowance and other regular financial support from DWP usually see the cash land in their accounts on a regular basis and know exactly when the money should arrive. However, sometimes payment dates have to move. This is because the DWP does not issue payments on bank holidays, and there are a few of these falling next month.

This year, the early May bank holiday falls on Monday, May 6, while the later May bank holiday falls on Monday, May 27. Payments due on May 6 should instead land in bank accounts on Friday, May 3, while those due on May 27 should arrive on Friday, May 24.Receive newsletters with the latest news, sport and what's on updates from the Liverpool ECHO by signing up here
