Social Security beneficiaries who receive the next of the retirement payments in the United States must meet a requirement. If they do not meet that requirement they cannot receive a check on that day and will therefore have to wait for the next Social Security payment.
The schedule of benefits has been announced by the Social Security Administration, so retirees can get an idea of how to organize their household finances. If you receive the next of the month’s payments you should know that it is the last one in April, something that can be good or bad depending on how we organize our finances.
The last check for the month of April is in just a few days and not only retirees 65 years of age or older receive it. In addition to this group, other beneficiaries such as disability users, survivors and the rest can receive the check. This means that it does not matter what type of retirement we have in order to receive the new Social Security benefit.
Who is eligible to receive the latest Social Security check?
As we have already discussed, the type of retirement does not matter in determining who will receive the last of the April Social Security checks. In order to have the check in our pocket we have to meet a requirement that has nothing to do with the reason for retirement.
This requirement is related to the birthday. In this sense, only retirees born between the 21st and 31st of the month will receive the new payment from the Administration. But we must watch out for another requirement, and that is that our retirement must also be after 1997 in order to have this check in our pocket in the near future.
Therefore, the check for the next Social Security payday is only for retirees after 1997 who have their birthday between the 21st and 31st of the month. All other retirees will receive their benefit on different days, depending on both the year of retirement and the birthday.
When is the pension payment day?
The last day for Social Security pension payments in April is the 26th. Although this is the last day, it is not the only day of the month. During the month of April the Social Security Administration has sent the pension benefit to all beneficiaries regardless of date of birth and year of retirement.
Therefore, on the last day of the month’s pension payment all Social Security beneficiaries should have their benefit. If not, it is very possible that there is some failure with our payment, so we should do something about it.
We can always complain to both our bank and the Social Security Administration. In order to find out if there is any delay with our money the first thing we have to do is to contact the bank. If after that we do not have a solution, then we should contact the Administration and ask the possible problems we may have in receiving the payment.
