The Social Security Payment Schedule in August is coming to an end, which means that American retirees in most cases already have checks. But not all of the United States pension payments are available as of today. There are still several checks that have not arrived yet.

Specifically, there are two different payments for the month of August that will arrive in the next few days. If you are eligible, you could even receive these two checks from social security. Likewise, it is also possible to receive only one of them, so it all depends on whether you are entitled to the payments or not.

Americans who will receive the last Social Security check in August

Only a certain group of Americans is entitled to Social security payments in August. If you are a pensioner, the payment will appear in your checking account very soon. Otherwise, you will have to wait until September, as this will be the last check for the entire month of August.

This benefit is available to pensioners who meet the following requirements:

• You have been receiving social security benefits since May 1997.
• Your birthday is between the 21st and 31st of any month.

If we meet these criteria, we belong to group 4 of pensioners. And this group always receives its Social security check on the fourth Wednesday of the month. In September the situation will be the same, so thanks to this information we can mark the day of collection on the calendar. In August this payment will be sent on the 28th of the month.

Will there be any further social security payments before September?

The truth is that this payment is August 28 is not the last day that the social security for the entire month. After that payday, it is possible to receive another check, but this time not for the pension, but for a different type of payment. This other benefit is not available to all Americans, so we need to look at the eligibility criteria.

On the one hand, we must be 65 years or older to receive this payment. Likewise, we can receive the payment if we have a disability. In addition, have a low monthly incomeand limited resources. In this case, we would have access to the payment on August 30, 2024.

This advantage is called Additional social income. The maximum amount of this check is $943 and only Americans who meet the above requirements will have access to the check. But remember, this payment is actually a calendar check for September. The reason it’s arriving early is simple: September 1 is a weekend, so the payment is being pushed forward to August 30.
