Wondering when your DWP benefits will arrive in June 2025? Whether you’re receiving Universal Credit, the State Pension, PIP, or Child Benefit, keeping on top of payment dates and rate changes can make a real difference.

This guide walks you through what’s confirmed for the month—from amounts and updates to budgeting tips that help you stretch every pound.

Overview

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) supports more than 20 million people across the UK, offering crucial payments that include retirement income, disability support, and assistance for carers. For June 2025, all payment dates are already confirmed. And with no bank holidays to factor in, everything should arrive on time.

Here’s what you need to know about each benefit and how to stay financially steady.

Schedule

Take a quick glance at June 2025’s payment schedule and rates:

Child BenefitEvery 4 weeks3 June & 1 July£24.00/week (first child)

Universal Credit

Universal Credit is paid monthly, seven days after the end of your assessment period. So, if your period wraps up on 5 June, payment should land around 12 June. Rates went up slightly in April 2025—those over 25 and claiming as a single person now receive £400.14 monthly.

Pension

State Pension payments come every four weeks, with the day determined by the final two digits of your National Insurance number:

20–39Tuesday
40–59Wednesday
60–79Thursday
80–99Friday

In 2025, the full new State Pension pays up to £233.80 per week, reflecting a 4.1% rise under the triple lock system.

PIP

For those living with long-term illness or disability, PIP remains a key support. Payments are made every four weeks. For 2025, the Daily Living Component pays £73.90 per week at the standard rate and £110.40 at the enhanced rate.

The Mobility Component pays £29.20 (standard) or £77.05 (enhanced). No change in timing—expect your usual payment cycle.

Carer’s Allowance

Still paid every four weeks, Carer’s Allowance stands at £76.75 per week. If you care for someone for at least 35 hours a week, you’re likely eligible. It can be combined with benefits like Universal Credit, though certain adjustments may apply depending on what else you claim.

Child Benefit

Child Benefit payments for June fall on 3 June and 1 July—generally Mondays or Tuesdays. For 2025, the rate is £24.00 weekly for your first child and £15.90 for each additional child. Always check your account early on payment day, as funds typically arrive by morning.

Increases

April 2025 brought updates across the board: Universal Credit saw a 1.7% increase, PIP rates rose in line with inflation, and the State Pension jumped 4.1% under the triple lock. The Carer’s Element in Universal Credit also climbed from £198.31 to £201.68 a month. These changes offer a modest but welcome boost.

Budgeting

Using budgeting apps like MoneyHelper or Turn2Us’ planner can help track spending and avoid shortfalls. They’re especially useful if you’re juggling multiple payments or benefits.

Make sure to report any life changes—like moving, starting a job, or changes in household size—to the DWP quickly, as these can impact your entitlement or amount.

Also, setting up alerts with your bank can help you know exactly when your payment lands. While June is smooth sailing with no holidays, it’s smart to think ahead for months when schedules might shift.

And if things ever get tricky, don’t hesitate to contact organisations like Citizens Advice, StepChange, or Age UK—they provide free, confidential help tailored to your circumstances.

With payments confirmed and no disruptions expected, June is the perfect time to check your dates, reassess your budget, and make sure everything’s running as it should. A little planning now can go a long way later.
