A new payment is set to be mailed on Wednesday, September 11th, according to the Social Security Administration (SSA), the federal organization in charge of providing monthly benefits to participants in the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Retirement, Survivor, and Disability Insurance (RSDI) programs.
It is crucial to realize that in order to be eligible for this benefit, RSDI recipients had to have previously fulfilled all conditions, which included reaching full retirement age, having a job history, and having paid Social Security taxes in accordance with SSA regulations.
This Wednesday, Social Security will announce a new retirement benefit
Beneficiaries who depend on Social Security payments to pay living expenses and, in certain situations, combat poverty must comprehend how the payment schedule operates.
The Social Security Administration pays millions of Social Security benefits to eligible recipients of the Retirement, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (RSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) programs every month.
To guarantee that retirees, survivors, handicapped workers, and SSI beneficiaries receive their Social Security benefits on time, the federal agency has set up an annual payment schedule. In the United States, there are roughly 71 million beneficiaries.
This payment schedule states that the SSA pays out five rounds of benefits each month. SSI beneficiaries receive their payments on the first of the month, whereas RSDI beneficiaries who received benefits prior to May 1997 receive their payments on the third of the month.
Following the disbursement of Social Security benefits, RSDI claimants who applied for benefits after May 1997 will receive three rounds of payments from the SSA on Wednesdays the second, third, and fourth. This means that, depending on their date of birth, recipients who have not yet received their payments will do so on one of three payment dates, as explained here:
- Monthly checks for beneficiaries born between January 1st and October 10th are scheduled for the second Wednesday of each month.
- For beneficiaries born between the 11th and the 20th, monthly cheques are scheduled to be sent on the third Wednesday.
- Benefits recipients born between the 21st and the 31st are expected to get their monthly payouts on the fourth Wednesday.
RSDI participants will receive their Social Security benefits on September 11, 18, and 25 in accordance with this payment methodology. Remind yourself that you should wait at least three mailing days before contacting the SSA‘s customer care if your monthly check does not arrive within the anticipated timeframe.

Amount of money that recipients will get paid by Social Security in September
Each year, the US federal agency determines the monthly payment amounts that fluctuate depending on a number of factors, such as the beneficiary’s work history and the amount of Social Security contributions they contributed while they were employed.
If retired workers have 40 work credits, have made all required contributions for ten years or more, and have taken Social Security benefits prior to attaining full retirement age (FRA), they are eligible to receive monthly payments of up to $1,900.
Retirees can choose to delay receiving benefits until age 70 or to retire at the current full retirement age of 67 in order to obtain monthly Social Security benefits in excess of this average.
For example, a retired worker who waited until age 67 to begin receiving benefits and paid the average monthly contribution could receive up to $3,822, whereas a retiree who paid benefits based on the highest taxable earnings for the 35 years prior to age 70 could receive up to $4,873 per month.
On the other hand, people who made payments based on the maximum taxable wages prior to being disabled can get up to $3,822, while beneficiaries of the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program receive an average of $1,537 per month.
In addition, beneficiaries of the SSDI program who satisfy the Social Security Administration’s blindness requirements are given $2,590 monthly benefits.
