The Social Security Administration (SSA) has announced the final two payments for retirees in July. If you missed the payments on July 3 and July 10, there’s still an opportunity to receive your retirement benefits if you meet specific criteria.
To qualify for one of the two remaining Social Security payments, you must have filed for and received approval from the SSA. Additionally, you should not be receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI), you must not have been on benefits before May 1997, and you need to meet the birth date requirement.
On July 17, retirees born between the 11th and 20th of any month will receive their payment. If your birthday falls in this range, expect your benefit on this date. However, if your birthday is between the 1st and 10th, your payment was issued on July 10, and your next payment will be on August 14, 2024.
