What day are social security checks mailed

Social Security benefits are typically mailed on the second, third, or fourth Wednesday of each month, depending on your birthdate. Here's a breakdown:

For example, if you were born in January, your Social Security check would be mailed on the second Wednesday of the month. If you were born in February, your check would be mailed on the third Wednesday of the month, and so on.

Keep in mind that this is a general rule, and there may be exceptions. If you're unsure when your Social Security check will be mailed, you can:

  1. Check your Social Security statement or award letter to see when your benefits are scheduled to be paid.
  2. Contact the Social Security Administration (SSA) at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) to ask about your specific payment schedule.
  3. Visit the SSA's website at www.ssa.gov and use their online services to check your payment schedule.

Remember to always keep your address up to date with the SSA to ensure that your check is mailed to the correct address.
