These are the people who will receive $1,900 from Social Security on April 3
The first round of April’s Social Security payments will soon be sent out as per the SSA’s payment schedule.
The date on which retired workers receive their monthly payment depends on their day of birth, while SSI benefits are distributed on the first of each month.
Beneficiaries who began receiving their payments before May 1997 receive their payment on the first Wednesday of the month, which for this month will be Wednesday, 3 April.This is the group that will be receiving their checks this week.
Retirees who were born between the 1st and 10th receive the money on the second Wednesday of the month. Those who were born between the 10th and the 20th get their check on the third Wednesday. Those whose birth dates fall from the 21st to the 31st can expect their benefits on the last Wednesday of the month.
This payment schedule only applies to those who requested their retirement after May 1997. Workers who retired before this date receive the payment on the third day of the month, regardless of their day of birth. These will be the people receiving their payment tomorrow.
