Yes, i get that but there's nothing anyone here can do. The payment window is up to 17th May so at the moment the payments aren't late.

Yeah the Tax Credit thing is odd....it was supposed to stop double payments but that could end up happening...in fact it has. In my local rag a guy has received a payment off DWP and one off HMRC both for £301. Which is why I thought Tax Credits were supposed to be paid later, not at the same time. Bizarre. My mum had to report a missing payment last year and she only recieved it in March, just under a year later. I think that is what people are scared of.

Update...My sister literally just phoned me to say she got the payment so thanks for all the advice.
