INPS sets October 2026 payment dates for Assegno unico

The INPS has scheduled the October 2026 payments for the 'Assegno unico' (single universal allowance) for October 21 and 22. These dates apply to beneficiaries whose benefits remain unchanged from previous months and do not require new applications.

For new applicants, the first payment is typically processed during the last week of the month following the application submission. For example, applications submitted in September are expected to receive their first installment in the final week of October, while those submitted in October will likely receive their first payment in the final week of November. This same timeframe also applies to payments involving adjustments or credits.
