    Check your last award notice. It tells you the payments into this tax year, they usually change.

    Ive got an extra payment as well about the same as I normally get. One yesterday and one today it will pay a few bills.

    Did they say why an extra payment? Had you made changes recently?

    Iv had three payments this week from tax credits, one on Monday as per usual, one on Thursday which I was taking as this Mondays money and another on Friday (dated 22nd) which was £1 more than usual. No idea why lol!

    Renewals have started to be issued and when they're issued it can sometimes prodcue a one off payment if you get an automatic renewal (ie one that doesn't necessarily need to be responded to). Lots of people have the same at the moment
