Christmas Benefit Payments - can't find any 'official' dates...!

8 replies

Hello! I've been trying to find somewhere online that gives official dates for when benefits go into the bank over Christmas but can't seem to find anything - anybody else had any joy or know anything concrete? We receive DLA, Carers allowance, CTC and Family allowance/Child Benefit (not all due over the festive period I hasten to add) but in previous years they have sometimes gone in early. Some of the payments may well go in early as they are due on bank holiday days but it would be good to know in advance so I can plan ahead...

Many thanks in advance

24 and 31st for child tax credits that are paid on a friday or monday. Not sure about the others though

I just rang tax credits about something else and there was a recorded message. HTH.

Ooh, and i seem to remember a notice being up in the post office when I last went in.

I really should get organised and find this stuff out myself. If anyone finds out, can they post on here? Thanks.

Thank you, it at least gives me an idea
