Social Security benefits are a vital source of income for many retirees and individuals with disabilities in the U.S. However, payment schedules can be confusing, especially with variations based on birth dates and the date you started receiving benefits. Here’s a quick guide to understanding who gets paid on November 27, 2024, and who doesn’t.
Who Will Receive Payments on November 27, 2024?
On November 27, payments will be issued to:
Group 4 Beneficiaries: If you started receiving benefits after May 1997 and were born between the 21st and 31st of any month, you’ll receive your Social Security payment on November 27. This is the fourth Wednesday of the month, the designated payment day for this group.
Who Won’t Receive Payments on November 27, 2024?
Certain groups will not receive their payments on November 27. Instead, they’ll get theirs earlier in the month:
Group 1: Beneficiaries who started receiving benefits before May 1997.
Group 2: Beneficiaries who began receiving benefits after May 1997 and were born between the 1st and 10th of any month.
Group 3: Beneficiaries who started receiving benefits after May 1997 and were born between the 11th and 20th of any month.
These groups will have already received their payments on their designated dates earlier in November.
What About SSI Payments?
For those receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI), payments are typically made on the 1st of each month. However, because December 1st falls on a weekend in 2024, SSI recipients will receive their December payment on November 29, instead of November 27.
November 2024 Social Security Payment Breakdown:
Beneficiary Group | Birth Date Range | Payment Date | Notes |
Group 1 | N/A | November 1 | Benefits started before May 1997 |
Group 2 | 1st – 10th | November 13 | Benefits started after May 1997 |
Group 3 | 11th – 20th | November 20 | Benefits started after May 1997 |
Group 4 | 21st – 31st | November 27 | Benefits started after May 1997 |
Stay Informed
Understanding your Social Security payment schedule is crucial for managing your finances effectively. For November 2024, only Group 4 will receive payments on November 27, and SSI recipients should look out for an early payment on November 29 due to the weekend.
Staying updated on these dates can help you plan ahead and avoid any financial surprises!
