Three more Social Security checks will be sent out this month, according to the Social Security Administration. The first two payments will be mailed to people who get retirement, survivor, and disability insurance (RSDI). The last payment will be sent to people who get SSI. On the first, third, and fourth Wednesdays of every month, the Social Security Administration is in charge of giving monthly payments to retired people, survivors, and disabled people. The Social Security payout schedule says that these people will get their next two payments on the following dates:
- People who got RSDI after 1997 and were born between November 11th and August 20th will get their checks on August 21st, which is the third Wednesday.
- People who got RSDI after 1997 and were born between July 21 and July 31 will get their checks on August 28th, which is the fourth Wednesday.
Once these Social Security checks are sent, the SSA will send the last payment of the month to people who get Supplemental Security Income (SSI) on Friday, August 30th, since September 1st is a Sunday. Once all beneficiaries get their Social Security checks in August, the government will start sending checks again on September 3 to all seniors, survivors, and disabled people who claimed checks before May 1997, no matter what age they are.

Millions of people depend on their monthly Social Security benefits to pay for things like housing, food, medical care, transportation, and fun activities. Knowing when their payments are due is important for them. Just so you know, here are all the payment times that have been announced for the next month. Feel free to mark these dates on your calendar.

Don’t forget that if your Social Security payments don’t arrive on time, you have to wait at least three mailing days before calling the Social Security Administration. This is because sometimes the problem isn’t with the federal agency but with how your bank processes the payments. You can also go to “My Social Security Account” to get more information or look over your financial documents.
How much money will SSI recipients receive in September Social Security payments?
The current rules for SSI say that users could get anywhere from $698 to $1,415 per month. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients do not have to pay Social Security taxes in order to get their monthly payments because SSI is not an insurance program. Instead, how much they pay each month will depend on how much money and resources they have. This means that a part of SSI payments are based on how the Social Security Administration decides to define income and resource needs.
At the moment, the SSI resource limits for single filers are $2,000, and the limits for couples are $3,000. So, if someone applies for SSI benefits and falls under one of the following categories, and their income and resources are capped, they could get one of the following monthly payments:
- SSI payouts for individuals: people who meet certain income and resource requirements can get up to $943 a month in benefits.
- SSI payouts for couples: couples who meet the requirements for income and resources can get up to $1,415 a month in benefits.
- People who fall into the “essential person” (EP) group can get an extra $472.
