    is it even legal to pay that far in arrears??
    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....

    We pay on the 28th, but close off the payroll on the 15th, although I generally will try to advance 2 weeks in the first month.

    I know that the DWP offer loans, so this may be the way to go. Otherwise, gently push the employer towards the above method.

    Of course it is legal. Could be paid every six months or any other period.

    Most places i have worked you work either a week in hand or a month in hand, which is the norm anyway.
