May's Social Security payments were delayed as the second Wednesday, when payments are issued for many beneficiaries, fell unusually late on May 14. Depending on their birthdates, recipients receive payments on specific Wednesdays, creating a calendar quirk. Certain beneficiaries, particularly those who also receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI), are set to receive two payments in May: one for SSI on the 1st and the other for June on May 30, due to June 1 falling on a weekend. If payments are delayed, the SSA advises contacting banks or the agency for resolution.
The Social Security Administration determines payment dates based on birthdates, which created a delay for May's initial payments that fell on the latest possible date.
Beneficiaries who also receive Supplemental Security Income will receive two payments in May, one for SSI on May 1 and the other for June on May 30.
