When we start collecting our monthly Social Security check in the United States, we can know on what day the Administration will send our check. Undoubtedly, this makes it much easier to organize our household finances. When we know on what day we will receive our check, we can know if we will pay our bills on time.
Even so, remember that the calendar marks the days on which the Social Security Administration sends the checks. This does not mean that all beneficiaries can receive payment on the same day. It is essential to have a collection option active in order to receive checks instantly. Otherwise, the payment schedule is really a guide only.
In order to be able to determine exactly on which day we will receive the check, we must not only know the calendar. We will also have to know which are the collection methods and which are the most efficient. Only in this way will we be able to effectively organize our Social Security payments and our household finances.
WHO COLLECTS THE LAST SOCIAL SECURITY PAYMENT FOR AUGUST?
Citizens who have a birthday between the 21st and 31st of the month may receive their Social Security payment in the next few days. To be exact, the day of sending the money will be August 23rd. But in order to receive this payment, it is not only the beneficiary’s birthday that matters.
Just as the citizen must be born between the 21st and 31st of the month, he/she must also be retired after 1997. These are the two main requirements to collect the last Social Security payment for the month of August.
As we have already mentioned before, if we want to receive the payment on the same day it is mandatory to activate a collection method. This collection method is Direct Deposit and it is very fast and efficient. We will get the money immediately and instantly, so we will not have to wait a day.
WHERE IS MY PENSIONER’S PAYMENT FOR AUGUST?
If you are not eligible for the August 23rd payment, your check should have arrived. Therefore, if you have not collected Social Security you need to claim your benefit as soon as possible.
In order to find out where your payment is, the first thing you should do is contact your bank. This is the first step to take, as it is common for the bank to withhold money for many different reasons.
In the event that the bank cannot help us with the payment it is time to contact the Social Security Administration. This is the last barrier and they should be able to help you solve any problems related to benefit payment delays.
