All payments from the Social Security Administration are now dated to go directly into the pockets of retirees at retirement age 67. However, this group is not the only one that will receive such payments, as SSA sends payments to different groups in a staggered manner. And these groups are not composed by retirement age, but by day of birth. In this way, depending on the day you were born you will receive your Social Security check payment on one day or another.
With the calendar in front of us we can have absolute control of the day on which we will receive our benefit. It is the best way to know when the Social Security will send the check with our amount. Remember that payments are made on the second, third and fourth Wednesday of the month. And the day you will receive it depends directly on the day of your birthday.
Thanks to this information, the payment calendar is very easy to understand. We will be able to perfectly control all the expenses and incomes that we have in our bank account through Social Security. In addition, by activating Direct Deposit you have the opportunity to get paid on the same day the SSA sends the payment.
