As it is now standard practice, every month, the Social Security Administration (SSA), is preparing millions of payments for the beneficiaries of its Program. Those who receive it range from retired workers to citizens with some type of disability who, normally, fall into the category of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI).
These payments will be issued, so that they are made with reference to the date of birth of those who receive the benefits, those who were born between the 1st and 10th of the month, receive their money on the second Wednesday of each month, those people who were born between the 11 and 20, receive their money on the third Wednesday of each month and those born from 21 to 31 receive it on the fourth Wednesday.
Among the important information is that people who retired before 1997 and who receive SSI benefits are not within the payment scheme mentioned above, since the SSA transfers the money to them during the first days of the month, if a beneficiary receives regular Social Security payments and is also an SSI beneficiary, the Administration will prioritize the SSI payment at the beginning of the month and the regular payment will be issued until the third day.
