  • I'm due tax credits, child benifit and jsa tue 22/4/14 going into natwest account does anyone know if I will get any early payments really would like to treat the kids this bank holiday weekend .
  • Sadly yours will not be paid early. DWP/HMRC only pay early when the payment due falls on a bank holiday and this coming tuesday is not.
  • My state pension /pension credit is due tues 22 april ..does any one know if payments will be earlier due to bank holidays ,
    thanks
  • No it won't. Will be paid Tuesday!
