The Social Security Administration sends payments to more than 70 million recipients in the United States. However, only half of the payments have been delivered in May. In fact, there are two more payment dates left.
The next Social Security check will be due on May 15. Therefore, it will arrive on the third Wednesday in May. That implies that those who receive need to meet the birth date condition, or else, they will not be eligible.
Born from 11-20? Social security may send you a payment next week
Retirees aged 62 to 70, or older, will get payments on May 15. This applies if their birthday is from 11 to 20. Bear in mind that you must meet other key requirements like:
- filed for benefits
- got approval
- started collecting benefits but not before May 1997
If you began receiving Social Security before May 1997, your next retirement benefit payment will take place on June 3. Those whose birthday is from 1-10 will get their next benefit payment on June 12. If it is from 21-31, it will be due on May 22.
Social security amounts on may 15
Retirement benefits have no fixed amount. They depend on your earnings, filing age, and the years you worked in jobs covered by SSA. You could get $4,873 if you meet all the top requirements. These include payroll taxes paid, filing age, years of work, and earnings.
If you filed at Full Retirement Age, you could receive up to $3,822 from Social Security on May 15 or even May 22. The average benefit for May is approximately $1,943. Some retirees qualify for lower payments.
However, if that is your case you should apply for Supplemental Security Income at the same time. Then, you would be eligible for SSI on the first day of the month and Social Security on the third.
When will the next Social Security retirement benefit payment be? It will be for those born between 1-10
According to the Social Security Administration, if you were born between the 1st and the 10th of the month, you will receive your Social Security retirement benefit payments on the second Wednesday of each month in 2024
