When Do I Get My Check?

I applied March 23, 2023. When do I get my check?

Hi. That depends on your date of birth and your initial month of entitlement to benefits. For example, if you were born on March 23, 1961 and if you chose to start your Social Security retirement benefits effective with April 2023, your first payment would be due on the 4th Wednesday of May (https://www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-05-10031-2023.pdf).

You may want to consider using our software (https://maximizemysocialsecurity.com/purchase) to fully analyze and compare all of your various options in order to determine if you have better options for maximizing your benefits.

Best, Jerry
