The Social Security Administration (SSA) has finished sending payments for August and is preparing for the mailing of profits for September.
Month after month, SSA sends benefits to retired workers, as well as payments to survivors, that are sent to the children, spouses, widows, widowers or parents of a deceased beneficiary.
SSA also sends disability benefits from the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI).
This is the Social Security payment schedule
Generally, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments are mailed on the first day of each month. However, if the first day of the month falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the payment is advanced to the last Friday of the previous month.
On the third day of each month, SSA sends the money to beneficiaries who began receiving their payments before May 1997. If the third day falls on a weekend, payments are also advanced.
For those who collect Social Security benefits (retirees, survivors, or SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) at the same time, Your SSI payment is mailed on the first day of the month and your Social Security payment is mailed on the third day.
The rest of the checks are sent the Wednesdays, according to the date of birth of the beneficiaries:
- Second Wednesday of the month: retirees with a date of birth between the 1st and 10th
- Third Wednesday: beneficiaries born between the 11th and 20th
- Fourth Wednesday: retirees born between the 21st and the 31st
