Some eligible retirees get a Social Security payment on February 19, 2025. This is possible if you were born from the 11th to the 20th and you did not qualify for the payments on Feb. 3 or 12. Obviously, filing and approval are mandatory to get any checks or deposits from the Agency.
Payment amounts can also be higher if you were a high earner for 35 years and filed at 70. Needless to say, to get so much money you must have had jobs covered by SSA. Or else, you will get a pension but not these retirement benefits.
Social Security payment for retirees on Feb. 26
The Administration will disburse payments on the 26th if your birthday falls from the 21st to the 31st. Remember that if you are on both Social Security and Supplemental Security Income, commonly known as SSI, your due date will be March 3, 2025.
March 3 will also be your payday if you began receiving retirement benefits before May 1997. That implies you have been collecting benefits for about 28 years in total or even longer.
The March payment schedule for retirement benefits is quite simple. It follows the same paydays as the ones the Administration established for February 2025.
Social Security payment schedule for March
After the March 3 payment, there will be 3 rounds of Wednesday payments in the United States. If you receive benefits after April 30, 1997, your check or direct deposit will arrive on the second, third, or fourth Wednesday in March.
- retirement benefit payment on March 12: birth date from 1-10

The Social Security Administration will deliver payments of up to $5,108 if you filed at 70 and meet requirements. Filing at Full Retirement Age allows eligible recipients to get up to $4,018. The payments with the largest reduction will be for those who file at 62.
