WASHINGTON – The calendar has officially switched to November and is arriving the season of less daylightThanksgiving and Christmas in mind, and another round of Social Security benefits payments for beneficiaries.

The Social Security Administration sends out regular monthly payments (SSA benefits), but the date varies – usually depending on the day you were born. Social Security Retirement, Disability, and Survivors (RSDI) beneficiaries who filed claims after May 1, 1997 will be assigned the second, third, or fourth Wednesday of the month.

Those who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI), which are monthly payments for people with disabilities and older adults who have little or no income or resources, are paid on the first of the month.

If the 1st falls on the weekend, as was the case before Septemberthen payments will be made on the Friday before the 1st. Those who received benefits before May 1997 also have a specific payment date.

These are the dates beneficiaries can expect to receive their monthly payments in November.

Social security payment schedule for November 2024

• SSA beneficiaries who received benefits before May 1997: November 1
• Birthday between the 1st and 10th of the month: November 13 (second Wednesday of the month)
• Birthday between the 11th and the 20th of the month: November 20 (third Wednesday of the month
• Birthday between the 21st and 31st of the month: November 27 (fourth Wednesday of the month)

2 Social Security payments in November for some

Meanwhile, those receiving SSI will receive an additional check in November because of the way the payment schedule has been drawn up.

As mentioned, the Social Security Administration typically sends out payments on the first of the month for SSI. However, if the date falls on a weekend or public holiday – as is the case for Sunday 1 December – the administration will pay earlier than planned.

In this case, SSI recipients will receive their December payment on Friday, November 29.

How to Report a Missing Social Security Payment

Those who do not receive their electronic payment on the scheduled date should first contact their bank or financial institution, according to the Social Security Administration, which notes that it “may experience a delay in posting your payment.”

Those who still need to report a late, missing, or stolen Social Security payment can call the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) or contact their local Social Security office.

“We will review the matter and if payment is due, we will replace it,” the administration said says on its website.
