Many United States Social Security beneficiaries will receive their benefit very soon. It does not matter whether the payment is retirement or disability. The important thing is the date of the payment. The Social Security Administration has a complete schedule and the next payment is scheduled for August 24, although not all beneficiaries will receive their payments on that day.
Only a group of Social Security beneficiaries will be able to collect their retirement benefit on this day. To be exact, people born between the 21st and 31st of the month will have access to the money on the 24th, since it is the fourth week of the month.
Remember that it is not mandatory to be born in the same month of the payment, that is, not only people born in August, but between the 21st and the 31st of any month will receive the money.
Social Security Calendar for August 2022
The Social Security payment calendar is set in the same way every year. The payment days are always the 1st of each month for SSI payments and the second, third and fourth Wednesday of the month. At the moment this is the structure and it helps to remember when we will receive the benefit. The paydays in August are as follows:
- August 1: SSI for all recipients.
- August 10: Social Security benefit for those born between the 1st and 10th.
- August 17: SSA pension for those born between the 11th and 20th.
- August 24: retirement benefit for people born between the 21st and 31st.
What do I do if I don’t receive my benefit on these days?
If in your situation you receive your benefit through your bank account, the payment may take 3 days to arrive. Wait 3 days and complain to your bank if you do not receive your Social Security after that time. Your bank should help you with the situation, unless it is an SSA problem. If that is the case, contact your local Social Security office to solve the problem.
Collecting your benefit through Direct Deposit will help you avoid delays, as you will have the money immediately. It is a good way to avoid delays and problems in general. However, there can also be problems if the Social Security Administration is unable to pay benefits because your details have changed. Remember to always update your personal information in case it changes through My Social Security.
