Children in the United States can also get a Social Security benefit. This is news to many U.S. citizens, as it is common to associate the word pensioner with senior citizens. Surprising as it may seem, there is a group of children who can indeed access a Social Security cheque.
It should be noted that not just any child can have one of these benefits. Several requirements must be met. For the most part, the requirements for this type of child benefit include financial dependency. For that reason, although it is good news to have this type of benefit, it may not be to the beneficiary’s liking to receive it.
With these details in mind, the Social Security Administration will be sending this new cheque to retirees in the next few days. The type of retirement does not matter, so both children and disabled users will be able to get the cheque. Likewise, retirees will also have the possibility of accessing this cheque. This is the last cheque of the month, are you in this group?
Which group of children receives the next Social Security cheque?
Social Security payments are always sent in different batches to retirees with this type of benefit. Because of this, the system is able to send all payments without reaching a high saturation level. By knowing the days on which the SSA sends payments, retirees can have perfect organization at home and in the family’s finances.
The same goes for Social Security cheques for children. These checks are sent in the same way the SSA sends them to disabled users, widowed or aged retirees. Thus, the next group of children to receive Social Security cheques are those born between the 21st and 31st of the month.
Last call and last day of pension payments in January 2023
The last of the children’s benefit cheques will be in the next week. This is the last call to receive the January Social Security money. The rest of the retirees should have already been paid in the previous days. Thus, January 25th is the day chosen for this last payment.
So if you were born between the 21st and 31st of January and you have an accepted Social Security benefit, next Wednesday you will receive the cheque. In order to receive it directly on Wednesday, you must have Direct Deposit activated. This is not the only payment method.
It is also possible to cash your Social Security cheque by bank deposit, but it can take up to 3 days for the cheque to appear. With Direct Deposit there is no waiting, as we get the money immediately and without delay.
