When will a 2016/17 NI credit be reflected in a recently commenced State Pension?

I started receiving my State Pension a month ago.
A further NI credit for 16/17 is in the pipeline.
When can I expect my weekly State Pension to be increased?
How long do 'last minute' credits take to filter through the system?

When DWP receive the details of the FRY data (Final Relevant Year) from HMRC.

It should be much quicker than it used to be with the automation of the interfaces between employers and HMRC so I would have thought only a few more months.

I assume that DWP have made an initial award and do know that the final year data is outstanding?

There was me thinking it might be days or weeks ....
Thanks Greenglide for the reply though, which has satisfied my curiosity.

Yes, DWP advised that I would get a further increase in due course. I was curious to know how long it might take, just in case a rise didn't turn up.
