In the month of September all of the United States Social Security Disability payments have already left the SSA offices. This means that if we are expecting to get one of these checks it is possible that the payment will be late. To avoid this we must keep in mind some very important elements.
On the one hand, we must avoid delays, but on the other hand we also need to be aware of the payment schedule as well as the retiree group to which we belong. If we control all this perfectly we will find that the payment always arrives on time. But if this is not the case, we can always claim the payment.
How do I claim my Social Security Disability payment?
If our Social Security Disability payment has not yet arrived we must claim it from the Administration. Even so, there is a previous step to do this, since it is possible that it is not the Administration that has sent the check late.
To claim the payment we must follow the following steps:
- Contact our bank. The bank can help us find out what has happened to the Social Security Disability check. Sometimes they may hold it for various reasons.
- Contact the Social Security Administration. Only if the bank cannot solve our problem should we contact the SSA. This is the last step to take and will fix any problems we may have in this regard.
Be that as it may, remember that in order to get a Disability check on time we must keep in mind a few things:
- Update personal information at all times.
- No debts with the bank.
- Activate Direct Deposit.
- Know the Social Security payment schedule.
If we keep all this in mind, the Social Security Disability check will arrive every month without delays to our checking account. And once it arrives, we can use it for whatever we need and whatever we want without any problems.
