in Benefits & tax credits
Hi, could anyway please tell me the benefit payment dates for Christmas? My usual date for my DLA falls on December 25th and as this is a bank holiday i'm not sure when the payment will go in. Have tried to get hold of the DLA but have been on hold for a while so thought i'd ask here. Thanks in advance.

    I have a question about JSA over Christmas.

    I am due to sign on Tuesday 18th, and will get my payment into my bank account on 21st.

    My nexy sign on date after that will be Tuesday 1st Jan (a bank holiday). So does anyone have any idea what date i will have to sign on instead of the 1st Jan?
    It wont be Sat, Sun or Mon (the 29th, 30th, 31st Dec) as its the weekend and the monday is another BH.

    Any ideas please?
