    The first to see the increase will be those with payment dates from 14th May. This is because the increase applies first to those with assessment period starting on or after 8th April. 

    You will receive yours next month.

    PIP is a weekly benefit paid 4 weekly so yes you will see part increase at first with that.

    UC is a monthly benefit and its not possible to receive an increase for part
    of that month.
