With the new payment, all seniors born between January 1st and October 10th will get Extra Social Security. The plan for Social Security payments says that three payments will be sent out this month on the second, third, and fourth Wednesdays.
Tomorrow, retirees who started getting benefits after May 1997 and were born on these dates will get a new deposit. Beneficiaries who are qualified will get a check every month for about $1,900.
The amount they get could change, though, depending on when they decided to start getting benefits, how much they worked, and how much Social Security tax they paid while they were working.
Most seniors will be able to get Social Security payments if they have paid into the system for at least ten years, which is the minimum number of years needed to get 40 credits.
To make these payments, Social Security taxes are taken out of workers’ paychecks. In addition, Social Security gives older people more than just cash security. Some qualified spouses, children, and, in rare cases, the parents of a deceased worker may also be able to get these monthly benefits.
Three Social Security payment dates have been confirmed for retirees in September
There are millions of retirees who will get their monthly checks based on their birth date because that’s how the payments are scheduled this year. Here are the dates that pay will be made this month.
| Retirement benefits | Payment date | Payment Methodology |
| Retirees | September 3rd (Tuesday) | This Social Security payment is only available for those who collected benefits before May 1997 |
| Retirees (who collected benefits after 1997) | 2nd Wednesday (September 11th)
3rd Wednesday (September 18th) 4th Wednesday (September 25th) |
Day of birth: 1st–10th.
Day of birth: 11th–20th. Day of birth: 21st–31st. |
Each month, people who are retired, widowed, or ill get a different amount of money because it depends on their individual situation. Because each program has its own rules and payment amounts, we’ve put together a list of all the monthly checks that retired, survivors, and disabled workers can get this month:
| Social Security payments | Retirement benefits | Survivors benefits | Disability benefits |
| On average | $1,900 | $1,505 | $1,537 |
| Other payments | Age 62: $2,710 Age 67: $3,822 Age 70: $4,873 |
Individual: $1,773 2 Children: $3,653 |
Blind recipients: $2,590 Maximum payment: $3,822 |
If you are retired and want to get the most money from Social Security, remember that you have to meet all the requirements first. So, to improve your chances of getting this Social Security benefit, you should talk to a financial advisor or an SSA expert.

Can beneficiaries receive a Social Security payment after the death of a parent?
About 2.7 million children get Social Security payments. More than half of them get them after the death of a working, tax-paying parent. The Social Security Administration (SSA) says that 98 out of every 100 children in the United States may be able to get Social Security payments after the death of a working parent.
In some situations, the child’s father who has died may also be able to get benefits. David Weaver of the University of South Carolina says that when a parent dies, it can have major effects on a child’s health, finances, and schooling.
Families and children who are still alive need Social Security payments, and people of all races, ethnicities, income levels, and places live on them. The benefit for surviving children is more than $1,000 a month on average.
This benefit lasts until the child turns 18 or 19 if they are still in high school and not married. In some cases, stepchildren, grandparents, step-grandparents, and adopted children may be able to get regular benefits.
