SSA Sends Out Checks To Three Groups This Month. Americans with a Social Security benefit should pay attention to the payment schedule for February 2024 because checks arrive later The timing of Social Security retirement payments changes a bit each month for United States citizens. However, the truth is that there are different patterns that repeat each month.
But when we encounter irregularities it is important to keep in mind that we might get payment on different days. And in this month of February we find that until the third week of the month we will not see the first payment for one group.
And is that Social Security follows the usual pattern of calendars, but the beginning of the month completely conditions the exact day in which we get the money. If you are part of group 2 retirees, you will get the money a little later than usual.
Even so, we should rest assured that we will still get the money. The only difference is that we will receive it a little later. But there is nothing to worry about. The Social Security Administration will send different checks to all retirees of all classes. So no matter what group of retirees we belong to, we will get our benefit.
When do Social Security checks arrive in February 2024?
As we can see, we are in the second week of February 2024 and the second group of retirees has not gotten their Social Security. This is because the beginning of the month was on a Thursday. When this happens, the exact day on which the Administration sends checks to retirees changes a bit. To avoid unpleasant surprises, let’s take a look below at the days on which we will get each of these payments:
- February 14th
- February 21st
- February 28th
On these days, only retirees with benefits after May 1997 get their checks. The payment days for retirees prior to this month of 1997 are always different. In the month of February, this other group received their collection on the 2nd day of the month.
In the case of having a check after 1997, we will have to take into account that the payment will arrive on one of the days mentioned above. The birthday will determine whether we get it earlier or later. With birthdays between the 1st and the 10th, on February 14th. On the other hand, beneficiaries with birthdays between the 11th and 20th get Social Security on February 21st. Finally, February 28th is for retirees with birthdays between the 21st and 31st of the month.
Where is the Supplemental Security Income?
The other benefit sent out each month by the Social Security Administration is Supplemental Security Income. This other benefit is not for all Americans, but many Americans can get it without any problems.
The Administration sent this check on the 1st of the month, as usual. Thus, thousands of retirees who have had this type of monthly check and Social Security since before 1997 got two payments in just two days.
If you have accepted your Supplemental Security Income benefit and have not yet received your February check, you should claim your payment. Ideally, you should first contact your bank and then, if you do not get a solution, contact the Social Security Administration.
