As of September 3, people who have already received their payments are not eligible for any of the remaining checks or direct deposits. Check to see if you are eligible for the biggest payments.
Largest Social Security payments in September
If you filed for and got benefits before May 1997, September 3 is one of the paydays when you can get the biggest payment. People who get SSI or retirement benefits do not qualify because they make too little money.
If retirees meet all the standards set by the Administration, they will be able to get their biggest Social Security check or direct deposit on September 11, 2024. People born between January 1 and October 10 will get money on September 11.
If your birthday is between September 11 and September 20, the second set of payments will be made on September 18. On September 25, if your birthday is after September 20, you will get the most money when you retire.
Largest payment amount for Social Security retirement beneficiaries in September
Some seniors worked hard and earned a lot of money. In September 2024, they will get the biggest Social Security payment. In order to do that, they have:

- earned the taxable maximum for 35 years

You can get up to $4,873 in September if you have done all of these things. You can get up to $2,710 if you meet almost all the standards but file when you are 62. You can only get up to $3,822 if you file when you reach full retirement age.
