Those getting a payment on Monday, June 5 will receive their payment on Friday, June 2 instead.
The Department of Social Protection wrote in a statement: "Monday 5 June is a Bank Holiday and as a result most social welfare payments due to be paid on Monday 5 June, will now be paid on Friday 2 June instead.
"All Intreo Centres and Branch Offices will be closed Monday 5 June due to the Bank Holiday. Intreo Centres and Branch Offices will re-open on Tuesday 6 June."
Parents who avail of the Child Benefit payment are also set to be paid early.
The upcoming Child Benefit payment will have an additional €100 cost of living bonus per child.
It is set to fall on the June Child Benefit date, June 6. However, it could arrive in bank accounts even earlier.
Traditionally, when Child Benefit is paid out on the Tuesday after a bank holiday, parents get the payment in their account on the Friday or Saturday, so people could receive the bonus on June 2 or June 3.
