Get ready! Your Social Security check for August is on its way. The payment schedule varies depending on your birthday and when you started receiving benefits. For most, payments go out on the second, third, or fourth Wednesday of each month. SSI recipients typically receive theirs on the first of each month. If you're expecting a payment, don't panic if it's late - just wait three extra days before reaching out.
