Collecting retirement benefits in the United States has a very big advantage. That advantage is that the Social Security Administration always sends the money on the same dates.
Therefore, we know when we will receive the money, so we can organize our finances effectively. We also have the information of the amount of money we will receive, as pensioners do not normally see a change in their pensions. There is only one change a year and that is through the COLA, but the rest of the year is the same.
Knowing that every month they collect an exact amount of money makes it easier for pensioners to have an organization. Especially if they have some extra income to help them pay all the bills. In this case we are talking about the retirement Social Security payment for one group of people, those who belong to those who have birthdays between the 21st and 31st of the month.
Who is collecting Social Security this week?
As we have advanced a little bit above, this week people born between the 21st and the 31st of the month collect Social Security. To be more exact, on August 25, 2022, this group of people will receive the corresponding amount. If you are in this group, you should receive your retirement benefit in these days. Do not forget to contact the Social Security or your bank in case you do not receive the money on time.
If you are not in this group and you were born between the 1st and 10th or between the 11th and 20th, your payment day is earlier. In the first case, the second Wednesday of August, the 10th, was the payment date. On the other hand, in the second case, the Social Security Administration sent the money on August 17, the third Wednesday of the month. Here are all the August 2022 dates for SSA payments:
- Second Wednesday of the month, August 10: People born between the 1st and 10th of the month collect Social Security.
- Third Wednesday of the month, August 17: Individuals born between the 11th and 21st of the month will collect their benefit.
- Fourth Wednesday of the month, August 24: On this day, people born between the 21st and 31st of the month receive their benefits.
Don’t forget that if you do not receive your automatic Social Security payment, you should go to a local office for benefit assistance. But before that you must wait three days from the day of payment.
