People who receive benefits may get their payments on different dates next month due to the August bank holiday.
The bank holiday falls on Monday, August 29, and people who are due a benefit payment on this day might be paid earlier. Being paid earlier than expected might seem like a good thing, but it does mean you’ll need to make your money last longer. This is because you’ll have a longer wait until your next benefit payment.
Here, The Mirror explains how the August bank holiday could affect your benefits - and when you’ll be paid next month.
