Irregularities in the timing of United States Social Security payments are not a common occurrence. That is why they are called irregularities, of course. But it is true that it is something that could happen, so we should always keep it in mind for the economic organization of our household.
Likewise, sometimes irregularities can be beneficial for some retirees. The important thing is to be able to know in advance the days of the Social Security payment in each month. Best of all, it is possible to do this. The Administration announces in advance the days on which it pays these monthly checks.
Also, the May SSI payment has a slight irregularity. So check next month’s payments well if you want to avoid financial problems with regard to Social Security. It is very easy to know the payment days for these benefits, so it is very easy to organize the money for each household that gets retirement.
