    I got a payment today too, very very unusual for mine to show on a Friday unless it is a bank holiday on the Monday...I'm not going to touch it though until Monday!
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

    I'm trying to remember if there was an early payment last year due to the Scottish bank holiday....alas, my memory is failing me!

    I'm not in Scotland by the way.

    This is correct :) I had to ring Tax Credits this morning (for something completely different) but there was an automated message saying payments have been made today instead of Monday due to bank Holiday.
