    As in DLA?

    Usually every 28 days but some people get it every 14 days. Different people get it on different dates though.
    If my typing is pants or I seem partcuarly blunt, please excuse me, it physically hurts to type. :wall: If I seem a bit random and don't make a lot of sense, it may have something to do with the voice recognition software that I'm using!
  • I think DLA is usually paid on a Wednesday if that helps.
    I've given up trying to get my signature to work with the new rules, if nobody knows what the rules are what hope do we have?

    just to add, i agree that it doesnt seem a set day. When i was paid every 28 days it was on a Tuesday. Now i get my dla weekly, it is a Wednesday.

    I get my DLA every 2 weeks on a Friday.

    Ive just had a letter today saying that DLA is going to be paid seperate from IB from December. Paid every month in future. If there is a prob with this they give a number to ring on the letter.

    You can also get DLA paid weekly in cases of severe hardship or limited budgeting skills.
