    thats for child benefit and tax credits, not jsa/esa/is tho :) thats different to the above stuff :)

    Does this mean that is may not actually be the 27th? Knowing the JC, it probably won't be until about march..
  • Please note this is tax credit payment dates NOT jsa!

    Due date Payment date 25 December 2012 (Christmas Day) 24 December 2012 26 December 2012 (Boxing Day) 24 December 2012 27 December 2012 24 December 2012 1 January 2013 (New Year’s Day) 31 December 2012 2 January 2013 31 December 2012

    surely if tax credits are paying early, so will jsa? :T

    from there guidelines a payment due on 27th will be there as normal on the 27th :) they are usually pretty good oer the chriostmas period,

    all tax credits get paid on 24th and 31st if they fall on a bank holiday day all child benefit payments fallign on the bank hols will be paid 1 working day earlier, they are pretty straight forward :) its the forghnightly payments that are confusing everyone :)

    yup but u ask em, they are totally different jobcenter stuff and payments will nto deal with tax credits and child benefit, i hae had the conersation with them, sounds a bit silly to me, but hey if it means at least one of em are good with payments it works in our favour LOL
    Lystria :p
  • Not when you only get JSA its not. Not when you have £2 emergency credit on your Electric meter to last until next Thursday it isnt... Yum, frozen christmas dinner....in the cold.
