This is the Social Security calendar for March 2024
The Social Security Administration now has the complete March calendar for United States beneficiaries. If you have a retirement check, you will be interested to know that you can now mark on the calendar the day the money will be sent. This will give you time to organize your household finances.
However, it is not only important to know the day on which the Administration sends the money. It is also important to know which group of retirees we belong to, as well as which is the fastest collection method to get the Social Security.
If we combine all this we will find that the economic organization in our home will be much simpler. Knowing at what time of the month we will be able to access our retirement money is key for many families. Thousands of Americans do not have a source of income other than Social Security, so it is important to know the day of collection.
Social Security payment schedule in March
Although the Social Security payment schedule for March only has four days marked on the calendar, the Administration actually sends out five different checks. And the fact is that two checks for different benefits leave the offices on the same day due to an irregularity.
Therefore, we should take into account the following dates in March:
- March 1st. Supplemental Security Income payment. This check is for all recipients of this benefit.
- March 1st. Payment of the first Social Security check for pre-1997 retirees. There is no other extra requirement.
- March 13th. Administration sends payment to post-1997 retirees with birthdays between the 1st and 10th of the month.
- March 20th. Administration sends payment to post-1997 retirees with birthdays between the 11th and 20th of the month.
- March 27th. The Administration sends payment to post-1997 retirees with birthdays between the 21st and 31st of the month.
Now we know on which day the Social Security Administration will send each check. By activating Direct Deposit, we will also be able to know the day on which we will get the payment. By activating this collection method, we will be able to have the money at the same time the Social Security Administration sends it.
It is not mandatory to activate this collection method, but it is true that if we do not do it the money will take a few days to appear in our current account. After the 27th payment in March we will have to wait until April to be able to enjoy a new Social Security retirement check.
