Social Security payments are being sent out for October, and if you're waiting on yours, don't worry! The payment schedule is determined by your birthdate, with checks typically paid out starting on the 2nd Wednesday of the month. If you've received benefits before May 1997 or receive both Social Security and Supplemental Security Income, your payment schedule may be different. For those receiving SSI benefits, payments are usually sent out on the 1st of each month, with some exceptions.
