Child tax credit extra payment?

I have just checked our bank account and for some reason a child tax credit payment has just gone in but we dont get it on a Thursday but on a Tuesday and have all ready been paid it this week.
the payment we have just got is a couple more pounds more then our normal payment.
could this be because the new tax year has started?

I think it is just a "one off" Payment and you will be paid as usual. It's quite common to get this. I used to get it every year apart from the last 2 years.
What i used to do is this. See money in bank. wait until usual payday ( I never had the money so i pretended it wasn't there ) Then i used to get paid as usual and rechecking with HMRC told me that it was a one off cash lump sum.0 -
got pay on tuesday got a letter today saying payment due today then payment every week on tuesday so is one off payment0

How long did it take for your payments to change and to get your tax credits letter? I renewed a week ago , my payments stayed the same0
