The organization within the United States Social Security pensioner payments follows a set schedule. Thus, this calendar is an essential tool for all retirees who receive a monthly check.
Knowing the calendar, we will be able to know on which days we will receive the Social Security benefit. Thanks to this, every month we will be able to effectively organize the household economy. After all, that’s what the benefit money is for.
However, since Social Security sends checks on different days, not all retirees will receive the next check. In order to receive the next benefit, certain conditions must be met.
The retirees who will not receive the next check from Social Security Administration are all beneficiaries with a benefit after 1997. Therefore, we can say that only retirees with a check prior to that year will receive their benefit the next mailing.
When will the new Social Security check be mailed?
The day of the mailing will be on August 3rd. In other words, Thursday of next week will be the Social Security collection day for pre-1997 retirees. All other retirees will be able to collect their benefit on the following Wednesdays.
So if you have a post-1997 benefit you will have to wait until the second, third or fourth Wednesday of August. To be exact, these payments will arrive on the 9th, 16th and 23rd of this month. Receiving Social Security on one day or the other will depend on each retiree’s birthday.
As the mechanism of the payments is quite simple, every month we will be able to know well in advance the day of the payment. So we can organize our entire economy around this date.
What is the maximum retirement check amount?
In the year 2023 the maximum Social Security check reaches $4,555 per month. In the case of getting this large check we will not be entitled to any extra check. However, some beneficiaries who receive a smaller benefit may receive a little extra money.
The Supplemental Security Income payment adds $914 at most to certain Americans. This other benefit makes it possible for the neediest citizens to have a little extra money every month.
Still, if you want to get the maximum check of $4,555 in the future you must take several actions before you retire. For one thing, you should apply for retirement as late as possible. Also, you should work for 35 years at a high salary. Only in this way will you be able to get a good Social Security check with the age retirement.
