For Social Security Disability beneficiaries throughout the United States, the payment could arrive in just a few hours. It all depends on two fundamental factors without which it is impossible to cash a check in the near future. If these requirements are not met, it is possible that the check will arrive in the next few days or weeks.
Each group of users with a disability benefit receives a check on a different day. In order to know the day we will receive our Social Security money, we need to know the payment schedule. In addition, we also need to know what the requirements are for receiving the money on each of these days.
It is also important to remember that the method of payment chosen to receive the Social Security checks has a great influence on the day of payment. Thus, disability retirees with one collection method can receive the money immediately. The other group that does not have the faster payment method activated will have to wait a few days before they can use the money.
Anyway, all of the beneficiaries will get every month their disability check in one day or another. The most important thing is to be eligible to get it and to apply for it on time. If our social security check is from this year we will have to wait until the 10th, 17th or 24th of may, depending on the birthday.
Which group receives the next Social Security Disability check?
The beneficiaries who will receive the next Social Security Disability check are those who have the benefit before 1997. This means that if you have your disability benefit prior to that date you will be able to enjoy the check in just a few hours. Receiving it immediately is only possible if you have the proper collection method activated.
So it is not enough to have the benefit from before 1997 to be able to access the check in the next few hours. In addition to that, it is also indispensable to have the appropriate collection method activated beforehand. Otherwise, you will have to wait until the classic money transfer takes effect. This means that it could take up to 3 days for the money to reach your pocket.
What is the fastest method of collecting Social Security?
The fastest way to receive any of your Social Security disability checks is Direct Deposit. However, having Direct Deposit activated does not mean that you will receive your check immediately, as it also depends on each individual’s collection day.
In this regard, we must control both the method of collection and the day on which the Social Security Administration will send the check. So take a look at the Administration’s payment days in the month of May. Knowing the day on which we will receive our benefit will give us an advantage because it is possible to effectively organize the economy of the whole household.
Disability benefit payment schedule for May
In addition to the May 3rd payment for pre-1997 retirees, the Administration will also send other different payments. Each payment day will depend on the retiree’s date of birth. Remember to activate Direct Deposit to receive the money on the same day it is sent.
In this regard, the rest of the groups will cash checks on the following Wednesdays. May 10th is the day for retirees born between the 1st and 10th of the month. On May 17th, beneficiaries born between the 11th and 20th of the month will receive their checks. Finally, on the 24th of May, disability retirees receive their benefits from the Administration.
Disability or age retirement checks could take up to 3 days to appear if we do not activate Direct Deposit. But now we know the day the Social Security Administration will send the payments, so we can know when we will have the money.
