Can I Change The Day Of The Month That I'm Paid Benefits?
Hello Larry, My Bill's come monthly but I get Socal Security on the 2nd Wednesday of the month which means that 4 out of 12 months I receive my payment at 5 week intervals. This causes me a hardship is there and recourse for this,getting paid every 5 weeks is tuff.
Hi,
Sorry, but no. Since May 1997, the day on which a person's Social Security payment is made is determined by their day of birth. Workers born in the first 10 days of a month are paid on the second Wednesday of each month. Workers born in the second 10 days of a month are paid on the 3rd Wednesday, and workers born after the 20th of a month are paid on the 4th Wednesday (https://www.ssa.gov/kc/rp_paybenefits.htm).
Best, Jerry
