The Social Security Administration is scheduled to send out June 2026’s next round of monthly benefits payments this week.
Social Security to be paid out on Wednesday, June 10: who gets benefits?
Across the U.S. this week, certain Social Security recipients are due to get their latest monthly payment, as the Social Security Administration (SSA) continues its benefits schedule for June.
The upcoming distribution date marks the beginning of this month’s three-Wednesdays payment cycle.
Who’s receiving Social Security on Wednesday, June 10?
Of the U.S.’s 71 million Social Security beneficiaries, many will be paid on the second, third or fourth Wednesday in June, depending on their date of birth. On June 10, this month’s second Wednesday, benefits are to go out to recipients born from the first to 10th of any month.
June 2026’s full three-Wednesdays schedule is:
- Born on 1st-10th: Wednesday, June 10
- Born on 11th-20th: Wednesday, June 17
- Born on 21st-31st: Wednesday, June 24
NB: If you claim Social Security benefits based on someone else’s employment history, the SSA refers to the other person’s date of birth.
What other Social Security payment runs are there in June?
- June 3: Social Security paid to certain long-term beneficiaries
Social Security beneficiaries who signed up before May 1997 were paid on June 3, regardless of their birthday.
- June 3: Social Security paid to recipients also on SSI
Social Security can be combined with Supplemental Security Income (SSI), a benefit for certain low-income individuals. These twin recipients got their SSI on June 1, followed by Social Security two days later.

- Retirement benefits: $2,026.41/month
- Disability benefits: $1,493.20/month
