The changes are due to the upcoming Easter bank holidays
The Department for Work and Pensions has announced changes to child benefit payments that could impact thousands of people in March. The alterations are due to the upcoming Easter bank holidays, which will result in DWP offices and helplines being closed.
How will the bank holidays affect my benefits? Both Good Friday and Easter Monday are bank holidays, and neither the DWP nor HMRC make any payments on these days because they're non-working days. This means that if you're due a payment on Friday, March 29 or Monday, April 1 this year, you'll be paid on Thursday, March 28 instead, reports Wales Online.
You don't need to do anything - your payment will be made automatically by either the DWP or HMRC. But remember, if you get your money earlier, you'll have to make it last a bit longer until your next payment.
