On Wednesday, July 3, the agency will send payments to people who began receiving their retirement benefits before May 1997.
According to the SSA, average payments for retired workers increased to $1,900 per month this year thanks to the cost-of-living adjustment.

You can consult the comprehensive Social Security payment schedule for all of 2024 to find out when to expect your benefits throughout the year.
Payments are sent via direct deposit to beneficiaries who have shared their bank account details with the Social Security Administration, or through the mail in a paper check, which takes longer to arrive. If you do not receive your money on the indicated date, the SSA recommends that you wait three more days to communicate with the agency to allow for mailing delays.
