One of the great advantages of collecting a monthly Social Security check in the United States is being able to know the day of payment. Thanks to the calendar that the Social Security Administration sends out each month, retirees can know on what day they will receive their benefit. In this sense, the beneficiaries of this type of check can organize their finances in a more efficient way.
So if you have not yet cashed your monthly check, it is possible that you will do so in the next few weeks. All you have to do is pay attention to a couple of personal details. By meeting two conditions, the next of your Social Security payments could be coming your way. Add to that choosing Direct Deposit as a collection method, and the check will arrive even sooner.
As for the amount, it’s true that $4,555 a month is possible. But it is also true that not all retirees can reach such a high figure. To achieve this, it is necessary to maximize the Social Security retirement pension. And to do that it is necessary to plan well in advance for everything related to this payment.
WHO WILL RECEIVE THE NEXT SOCIAL SECURITY PAYMENT?
The next Social Security payment day will be August 9th. This payment is for all retirees who have a previously accepted benefit and who meet the requirements. As for the type of benefit, it does not matter. The type of benefit is not part of the requirements.
Therefore, both citizens with a disability benefit and age-based retirees can collect the next check. Likewise, all other retirees, regardless of the reason for retirement, can also receive a Social Security payment.
But two essential requirements must be met. Without meeting these two requirements, it is impossible for Social Security check to reach our pocket next August 9th. These are the two requirements:
- Retirement after 1997.
- To have your birthday between the 1st and 10th of the month.
This group of retirees is paid on the 9th, but if your benefit is prior to 1997, the check should have already reached your pocket. The payment for retirees with Social Security prior to 1997 arrived last August 3rd.
Finally, it is also worth noting that retirees born between the 11th and 31st will have Social Security on different days. On the one hand, beneficiaries born 11th-20th receive their check on the 16th day. On the other hand, the group of retirees born on the 21st-31st will receive their payment on the 23rd of August. This is as long as they applied for Social Security after 1997.
