Big News: New Social Security Payments Are Coming, But Only for Birthdays Between the 11th and 20th
The United States‘ Social Security payments run on a specific calendar schedule and this November, beneficiaries with birthdays associated with certain days will receive their funds on particular days. All beneficiaries are eagerly waiting to collect their monthly checks but only those who fall within specific groups of birthday dates will receive their checks from November 20. This article will outline the kinds of groups of beneficiaries eligible for such payment and what is required for a person to become eligible. In addition, we will clarify what other November payments are due for the excluded group.
Thus, it is important to know how Social Security beneficiaries should keep track of their payments and the requirements for access. Key payment dates should also be checked, such as November 20, which is reserved for Group 3 beneficiaries. It is also important to check the November 27 and November 29 payments, which correspond to other groups. As the days progress, the payment schedule becomes more diverse, depending on the beneficiaries’ dates of birth.
Social Security Payments on November 20th
November 20 is an important date for recipients of Social Security. On that day, only the retirees who fall into group 3 will receive their payments. To fall within this category, you must meet two conditions: first, you must have started receiving payments from Social Security after May 1997, and second, your birthday falls between November 11 and November 20. When these conditions are met, they receive their payment on November 20.
So, we are looking at two mandatory requirements for Social Security payments on the 20th of November:
- You have a benefit since after May 1997
- You have a birthday between the 11th and 20th of any month.
But worth noting, those who don’t qualify for these dates, will have to wait until the subsequent pay dates, since Social Security pays according to a birth date, so not all recipients will be paid at once. Those outside group 3 should wait till more dates do come before the end of the month.
Without Direct Deposit, the payment will not arrive on the same day it is sent, but will take a little longer to appear. Either way, we will get payment in the days following this mailing day if we are eligible for this Social Security check.
Remaining Social Security payments in November
Apart from November 20, other pay dates in November are on 27 and November 29. That is, November 27 is a pay date corresponding to Group 4 retirees. These include persons having birthdays between the 21st to 31st of any month, as well as having a benefit since after May 1997. November 29 shall be the SSI pay date, which means people who really need more supplemental income.
For recipients not belonging to either of the mentioned categories, the waiting time is till next month for receiving their payment. But it is important that all recipients know when they can expect a pay day and have no anomaly in their Social Security account so that delays are avoided. If a beneficiary does not receive their payment by the due date, they are advised to make contact with the SSA to clarify possible issues.
In brief, November will be a busy payment month for Social Security recipients in the United States. Meeting the specific requirements and staying ahead of the scheduled dates are vital elements that may even save you from delays or problems with payments.
