✨ Important Update: Easter Payment Changes! ✨
Attention all State Pension and benefits claimants! As Easter approaches, there’s an important update you need to know about. Due to the upcoming Bank Holidays—Good Friday on 3rd April and Easter Monday on 6th April—the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) are adjusting their payment schedules.
🔄 New Payment Dates:
If you usually receive benefits such as State Pension, Universal Credit, Attendance Allowance, or others on these dates, expect your payments to arrive a bit earlier. Instead of the usual day, look out for your payment on **Thursday, 2nd April**.
🔔 Benefits Affected:
– State Pension
– Universal Credit
– Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA)
– Employment Support Allowance (ESA)
– Carer’s Allowance
– Personal Independence Payment (PIP)
…and more!
HMRC is also making early payments for:
– Child Benefit
– Guardian’s Allowance
🤔 Not impacted? If your typical payment dates don’t fall on either Good Friday or Easter Monday, breathe easy—your payments will continue as scheduled.
A friendly reminder to plan around these dates and ensure everything’s in order for your bank holiday plans. Enjoy the Easter break knowing your benefits will arrive without a hitch! 🐰💷
Don’t forget to share this update with anyone else who might be impacted, so everyone stays in the know 👥👍!
