What period to payments cover ?

I am about to claim my works pension. My next (fortnightly) UC payment is on the 19th of April. I assume it is paid in arrears. What period does this cover ? I want to stop claiming benefits at the right time.
Thank you
Eric

I actually get paid on the 22nd April (not the 19th) and two weeks later (for the period 16 March 2019 to 15 April).
I was first paid on the 22nd and that continues monthly (even though I also get paid two weeks later).
