Universal Credit and other benefits claimants are set to be hit by another payment change this month - here’s what you need to know.

Thousands of people claiming Universal Credit and other benefits are set to be hit by another payment change in May. It means you may find your payments arrive earlier than normal.

This is because there is a third bank holiday coming up on Monday, May 29. If you’re due a benefit payment on a bank holiday, you usually get paid on the previous working day.
