Retirement benefits from the Social Security Administration are a very important payment for United States citizens. Getting one of these payments each month can be key for those citizens who have no other regular source of income.
Be that as it may, it is also important to keep in mind that sometimes we encounter irregularities in Social Security Administration payments. And on this occasion we are facing something like this, since in the month of August there is an irregularity that changes the payment schedule for both the month of August and the month of September.
We must never leave aside all these changes in the Social Security Administration payments, since they are much more important than they may seem at first sight. It is very important for retired Americans to always be clear about their retirement and Supplemental Security Income payment days.
August Social Security calendar changes
Retirees who are waiting for their new check from the Social Security Administration may be getting it very soon. The last of the retirement payments will be on August 28th. Even so, the SSA will pay an extra check on August 30th, which makes for irregularities in this current month’s payment total.
However, it is easy to know on which days of the month each retiree collects. We have the complete calendar so we can mark in our personal calendar when we will get each of the checks.
Pay attention to the following Social Security Administration payment schedule for August 2024:
- August 1. Supplemental Social Security payment.
- August 2. Retirement check payment for pre-May 1997 beneficiaries.
- August 14. Retirees with benefits after May 1997 who have a birthday between 1 and 10 years old collect on this day.
- August 21. Retirees with a post-May 1997 benefit who have a birthday between the 11th and 20th are paid on this day.
- August 28. Retirees with a benefit after May 1997 who have a birthday between the 21st and the 31st collect on this day.
- August 30. September Supplemental Social Security payment. The payment is early because September 1 is a weekend.
Retirement payments are virtually unchanged for the month, but the extra Supplemental Security Income payment is very important. Ultimately, thousands of citizens with this accepted benefit may get their payment a few days early.
This check actually pertains to the September 2024 payment schedule. So if you meet the above requirement and also activate Direct Deposit, you could have two checks from the Social Security Administration in just a few days from today.
