Easter affects payment dates

When we pay you earnings-related daily allowance, the money will appear in your account within two banking days. However, public holidays are not banking days, so they extend the time it takes for the payment to arrive.
A banking day is a day when banks are open and payments can be processed.
In practice, this means that if we send you a payment on Wednesday, for example, the money will be in your account within two banking days, i.e. on Friday. If we send you a payment on Thursday, the money will not be in your account until Monday, because Saturday and Sunday are not banking days.
Public holidays are also not banking days. See the table to find out how public holidays around Easter affect payments.
