The Social Security Administration (SSA) issues payments according to a specific schedule. Schedule of Social Security Benefit Payments 2025 is given below.
Here’s how it generally works:
For Social Security Benefits:
- If your birth date falls on the 1st-10th of the month: You’ll receive your payment on the second Wednesday of the month.
