Social Security Payment Schedule: Why No SSI Check in September
Video Transcript
Thank you for joining us for this
important Social Security update.
September brings a unique payment
schedule because of Labor Day. And this
timing change could affect when your
benefits arrive and how you manage your
monthly budget. We will explain exactly
why some payments come early or seem to
skip a month and what you need to know
to avoid confusion or financial stress.
Keep watching as we walk through the new
September payment timeline and show you
how to stay prepared.
This September, Social Security
recipients will notice an unusual
payment schedule due to Labor Day
falling on Monday, September 1st, 2025,
which directly affects when benefits are
deposited. For supplemental security
income or SSI recipients, the Social
Security Administration advanced the
September payment to Friday, August
29th, so there will be no SSI deposit
during September itself. But this is not
a missed payment, just an early one to
ensure uninterrupted access to funds.
Regular Social Security beneficiaries
who began receiving payments before May
1997,
including those who get both Social
Security and SSI, will receive their
September payment on Wednesday,
September 3rd, which remains consistent
unless affected by a holiday or weekend.
For everyone who started Social Security
after May 1997,
payments are distributed based on birth
dates. Those born between the 1st and
10th get paid on September 10th. Those
with birthdays from the 11th to the 20th
on September 17th. And those born
between the 21st and 31st on September
24th. These adjustments apply to
retirement disability and survivor
beneficiaries and are designed to
prevent delays caused by federal
holidays. So, it is important to check
your payment calendar and plan your
monthly expenses accordingly as October
will bring another early SSI payment on
Friday, October 31st for November
benefits.
With Labor Day falling on September 1st,
2025, SSI recipients will notice their
payment was advanced to August 29th, so
there will be no deposit in September
itself. To avoid budget shortfalls, set
aside funds from your early payment and
doublech checkck your personal payment
calendar for the next deposit on October
1st. For those receiving regular social
security, remember that your payment
date depends on when you started
benefits and your birthday, such as
September 10th for those born between
the 1st and 10th. Staying organized with
these dates can help prevent missed
bills and financial stress. For more
