India, April 7 -- This month, two bank holidays will impact the timing of when you receive your benefit payments. The dates of these payments depend on when you first applied for Universal Credit and when your application was accepted. As a result, there isn't a fixed payment date for all claimants.

Typically, payments are made seven days after the end of your initial assessment period. However, due to the upcoming holidays, some claimants will receive payments earlier than usual, as reported by The Sun.

For those expecting their payment on Good Friday, April 18, or Easter Monday, April 21, the money will be paid on Thursday, April 17. This means you won't have to wait through the long weekend for your payment to arrive.
