Tax credit - anyone got a date for the £500 payment yet?

[JamesMiddletonsMarshmallows]

I see a lot of tax credit recipients will be getting a £500 lump sum rather than the £20 a week - but has anyone had it yet or had a date for it? I get a small amount of tax credits and can't figure out if I'm eligible for the £500

I reported a change due to corona virus which i now know i shouldnt have done but it meant my working tax stopped 😔 i called up o on the 8th march and my working tax was backdated a month.
Does anybody know if i will receive the 500 payment

@nevernotstruggling

Is anyone still waiting?

Yes, I'm still waiting. I'm with Santander. Mine usually goes in on a Tuesday night ready for Wednesday morning.

It mustn't go by when you get your normal payment as i got my tax credits on Friday and still no 500

I've had my usual tc payment. I usually get it on the second Tuesday

Maybe it'll b in by the morning hopefully

My normal payment day is Friday, I'm still waiting. Fingers firmly crossed for tomorrow!

@UnsolicitedDickPic I’m with Santander and it’s just gone in 👍🏼

I'm with nationwide, usual CTC day is Tuesday, mines just gone in x

My £500 and my CTC's went in just after midnight tonight/this morning and that's with the Halifax.

Mine appeared overnight :)

Mine in too

My payment went in just after midnight (Lloyds) - single parent, eligible for WTC but nil due to income, receive some CTC, just for anyone that might be in a similar position!

Still nothing here. I don't think I will get it due to zero hours contract.

Mine went in last night.

Mine went in also just after midnight. I wasn't sure if I would receive it because we have never had working tax because DH apparently earns too much but I get child tax credit.

Mine's gone in - Santander. Nice start to the week!

@StormBaby Thank you for the heads up! I was already in the Land of Nod by then, probably a good thing or I'd have obsessively checked the app all night until it turned up.

Halifax mine has finally arrived!!! I am astonished!!!!

Mines in. I'm with lloyds. 😀

Mine didn't go in with my usual tax credit payments for those still waiting, it went in on the Friday.

Mine went in this morning, my usual day for payment is Wednesday. I get CTC but no WTC. Never received a text message or letter.

Mine also went in today. I am so grateful right now!

Just logged in thinking I'd be close to overdraft (need to buy birthday presents) and shocked to see mine has gone in. Super grateful.

Mine went on today, perfect timing! So skint!

I’m pretty sure I am eligible for this but haven’t received a text or letter and still no payment into my account. I know they said payments will be made by April 23rd so still got a few more days to wait.

Anyone else still waiting?
