Western Asset Inflation-Linked Income Fund pays monthly distributions of $0.05 per share. Two are already declared: one with an [ex-date](/instructions/learning/ex-dividend-date) of October 23, 2026, payable October 30, and one going ex-distribution on November 20, 2026, payable November 30. The most recent distribution paid went ex-distribution on September 23, 2026 and was paid on September 30. Over the trailing twelve months, the fund paid $0.62 per share, a [yield](/instructions/learning/dividend-yield) of about 8.24% at a share price of $7.57.

The amount has been flat in the table. All 20 payments shown, from April 2025 through the declared November 2026 distribution, were $0.05 per share. There were no increases or decreases over that period, and the source gives no growth streak. Because only the last 20 payments are listed, the table does not show a longer history.

Ex-dates fall between the 20th and the 24th of each month, and payment comes at or near the end of the same month, about a week later. If the monthly pattern holds, the distribution after the declared November one would go ex-distribution in late December 2026 and be paid at the end of December.
