Some retirees can get their Social Security payment in November as early as November 1. However, if you have filed in 2024, it is more likely that you get your payment from November 13 onward.
Unless you get Social Security and SSI because you have a low income and no/little resources. In this case, you will not receive a payment worth $3,822, but a much lower check. Those who filed and got payments before May 1997 also qualify for a check on November 1, but they are not aged 66-67.
Social Security on November 13
The firs round of Wednesday payments will be issued on November 13. Retirees aged 66-67 who qualify must have been born from the 1st to the 10th, regardless of the month.
When it comes to the maximum amount on November 13, it can be up to $3,822 if workers have:
- filed for Social Security after April 30, 1997
- not collected SSI on November 1
- worked for 35 years
- filed at Full Retirement Age
- earned the contribution and benefit base for 35 years
- jobs covered by SSA
Social Security for retirees aged 66-67 on November 20 or 27
Remember that these paydays are not exclusively for retirees aged 66-67, there can be other retirees who are older or younger and qualify for other payment amounts.
To get Social Security on November 20, you must have your birth date from the 11th to the 20th. Those who were born after the 20th will receive their monthly payment of up to $3,822 on November 27.
On average retirement payments can be about $1,920 for all retired workers. That average amount is as of August 2024, since SSA has not updated average amounts yet. Actually, the average for 66 and 67-year-olds may be slightly lower. If you are still working, you could benefit from delayed credits if you apply for retirement benefits at 70. It could boost your benefits by about 24%. Note: the 2025 COLA is not included in the November payments.
