Summer is one of the most beloved times of the year for United States Social Security beneficiaries. And that’s because the nice weather invites United States citizens to travel and enjoy the golden years to the fullest. So receiving your Social Security retirement payment these days is always good news.
If you haven’t received your Social Security check yet, it means you will receive it soon. It’s obvious that the August retirement payment schedule isn’t over yet. So pay attention to see if you’re in the next group to receive your retirement check benefit. And if you’re not, there’s nothing to worry about because there’s one more payday.
On top of that, remember that if you don’t choose the right payment method you won’t be able to receive Social Security on time. Although this may not seem so important, it really is, as it can make a big difference between receiving a check immediately or not. Will you get the next retirement payment sent by the SSA?
WHO WILL RECEIVE THE NEXT SOCIAL SECURITY PAYMENT?
Retirees who are in the third group of Social Security beneficiaries will be able to receive the new retirement payment. In order to be included in this group, two requirements must be met. The first requirement is to have the benefit since after 1997.
The second requirement is related to the birthday. To be able to collect this check it is necessary to have a birthday between the 11th and 20th day of the month. These two requirements are mandatory. If not, we will not be able to cash next week’s new check.
WHEN WILL THE SSA SEND THE NEW RETIREMENT CHECK?
The exact day the Social Security Administration will send the new check will be August 16th. This day is the third of the August payments for retirees with a benefit. The other past days were the 3rd and 9th. Each of these days is for a different group of retirees.
If we do not receive this next payment we may belong to the last group to collect. This other group will receive their benefit on August 23rd. In order to be part of this last group, two other requirements must be met. The first requirement is the same as we have seen above. That is, it is mandatory to have the benefit since after 1997.
The other requirement to receive the last Social Security check for August is to have a birthday between the 21st and 31st of the month. In short, if we have the benefit accepted we will always receive it, but we will receive it on one day or another depending on the personal information of each individual.
