In 2020, the bank holidays bookend Easter weekend, as they fall on Friday, April 10, and Monday, April 13.
The bank holidays will mean people cannot receive payments then, so the Government has paid out early this month.
Those due to receive Universal Credit payments on Good Friday, the following weekend and Easter Monday will receive their benefits on Thursday, April 9.
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) confirmed people would not need to take action to receive the earlier payment.
