Hi. I have no way of knowing whether or not your payment date will change, but I can tell you that the Social Security regulations that determine when a person is paid haven't changed since 1997.

I’ve always been paid on the 3rd of each month my birthday is between 1-10 now my pay is the 2nd Wednesday why was this changed I’m 72

Hi. There haven't been any changes in Social Security's regulations regarding payment dates since 1997, so I don't know why your payment date is changing unless there's been a change in your status.

My we and I have been getting our checks on the 3rd of every month since 2014,Will that change for 2022. The person who changed the date was a Rep who worked for SSI

I have been getting my social security for years now on the 3rd of the month and pay my rent then. Why has it changed? If I don't get it the second Wed. Of the month I'm going to have to pay a late payment. I'm 78 yes old and get under $1300 a month and live from pay check to pay check. HELP!

I get my disability check from from the SSA
On the 4th Wednesday of the month for the last 4 years. This month with no warning and no reason on the third of the month. I like it better it fits my financial situation better. My worry is will it come this month on the 3rd or will I have to wait almost 2 months till the 4th Wednesday of the following month. If it's the latter I will miss my rent and basically starve to death.

hi i am on ss and medicare and medicaid through pennsylvania....i receive my checks on the 3rd of each month. will it be earlier this year because of the new years holliday?

Hi. No. January 3rd 2022 isn't a holiday and falls on a Monday, so people who are normally paid on the 3rd of the month should get their payments on Monday January 3rd (https://www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-05-10031-2022.pdf).

Best, Jerry

I've been getting my ssi payments on the 3rd day of the month. Will that payment date change? From what i've read as long as I'm over 65 (71 here) there shouldn't be a payment date change wondering how correct that is.

Hi. There haven't been any changes in Social Security's regulations regarding payment dates since 1997, so I don't know of any reason why your payment date would be changing.

I have been getting my ss payments on the 3rd of the month - will hat continue?

Hi Larry. I usually get my check on r the 2nd Wednesday of the month. Just saw a bulletin that says it will not becoming till 4th week of the month. Why is this changing.
