The Social Security Administration’s payment schedule shows 3 paydays left in March. Many Americans celebrate Saint Patrick’s Day, so check if you can receive your money before this special event in the United States.
The next day when retirees can receive a Social Security check or direct deposit will be on March 12, 2025. Therefore, this payday will be before Saint Patrick’s Day, which is celebrated on March 17 every year.
Social Security payments before St. Patrick’s Day
To receive money before St. Patrick’s Day, you must have filed for Social Security and received benefits after May 1997. Another requirement is not to be receiving SSI (Supplemental Security Income).
The third condition the Administration established is the fact that your birthday must fall from the 1st to the 10th. It is not relevant the month and year you were born as long as you got approval from SSA.
The maximum Social Security payment will be worth $5,108. To get so much money, you must have filed at 70, worked for 35 years, and earned the contribution and benefit base all those years in jobs covered by SSA.
Social Security payments after St. Patrick’s Day
The Agency claims that there will be two more payment dates after St. Patrick’s Day. Two days after Saint Patrick’s Day, there will be a payday. So, March 19 will be when many retirees can get a payment of about $1,978 on average.
Those retirees born from 11-20 will be the ones who can receive Social Security on March 19, 2025. Were you born from the 21-31? Then, your next payday will be due on March 26, 2025.
On average, retirees can get about $1,978 from the Social Security Administration. If your monthly payment was sent on March 3, you will need to wait until April 3, 2025. Those with low payments and limited resources may be eligible for SSI, so apply if you cannot make ends meet.
