    You will have to check your bank to be certain but you should of and yes it will be tuesdays money. However my brother was due to get paid with income support tuesday but hasnt, however my cousin who also gets income support tuesday has, not sure why?

    im not sure about the following tuesdays money as i didnt think tuesday 25th was a bank holiday however im unsure if the dwp have an extra day off cos of easter as i know alot of working places do, if tuesday 25th payment is due to go in early then it could go in bank either thursday or saturday.

    Hope that helps

  • Just to bring this topic back up to the front , it is st patrics day 09 today and I wondered if anybody got there child benefit early this week, and also are we likely to get next weeks tax credit's this friday as usually happens on irish bank holidays , but as it falls on a tuesday this year i'm not sure if it effects tax credits , It is helpfull to know so I can keep up with my million and one direct debits.

    Thanks in Advance

  • Any payments due today should have been paid yesterday (AFAIK).

    Next week's payments should remain unaffected.

    Monday 17th March is St Patricks day and so a Bank Holiday in Northern Ireland.

    Monday 24th and Tuesday 25th March are the Easter Bank Holidays so the payments will be made early for those days too.

    (Well they are bank holidays in Northern Ireland, I'm not sure if the holidays are Good Friday 21st and Monday 24th in the rest of the UK)




    Just realised I finally made my 1000th post - Yay :)
