On September 11, thousands of U.S. citizens will receive their Social Security checks for this month. To qualify for these monthly payments in the United States, you must meet all the requirements explained in this article. You cannot apply for a retirement check without first reaching a minimum age and accumulating the necessary work credits.
If your application for retirement benefits has been submitted and accepted by the Social Security Administration, you can expect to receive your payment shortly. You will receive a new check each month; however, it is essential to remember that the day you receive your funds varies depending on the retiree group to which you belong.
Who is eligible for the new Social Security Administration payment of up to $4,873?
The next recipients of this payout are retirees born from the 1st through the 10th of any month or called, group two. To be eligible, these retirees must meet essential criteria. If these conditions are not met, it will not be possible to receive the check on that particular day; however, it will still be possible to collect it on another day within the month.
To collect the September 11 pay, the following criteria must be met:
- Possess a Social Security check dated after May 1997. Have a birthday between the 1st and 10th of any month.
- In addition to these two essential requirements, we can include a third one that, although optional, is advisable. This recommended requirement is the activation of Direct Deposit. With this collection method, the retirement check is automatically deposited, eliminating any waiting time to access the funds.
How to receive a Social Security increase?
Once the benefit application is filed with the Social Security Administration, getting a monthly increase is not feasible. Only the COLA allows for a slight annual increase in our payments year to year that is reflected in our monthly payment.
However, if you have not yet applied for your retirement check, it is worth remembering that there is a possibility of receiving a larger payout. To achieve this, we must delay our retirement age as much as is feasible. In addition, it is necessary to have accumulated a total of 35 years of work and to have obtained significant benefits during those years.
