Can You Explain Why I Was Paid Early This Month?

I normally receive my Social Security check on the third Wednesday of every month. This month it came on 11 June. Can you explain why?

Hi. No, I have no idea why your check was paid early. Social Security will sometimes make payments before the scheduled date due to a holiday, but that wouldn't be involved in your case. If you're curious, I would suggest calling Social Security to see if they have an explanation.

Best, Jerry
