Two Social Security checks are coming next month for some. Here's what to know
Some Social Security beneficiaries will notice a change in their payment schedule in August due to a quirk in the calendar. The Social Security Administration (SSA) shifts the payment schedule whenever the first of the month falls on a weekend or holiday. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a needs-based program that provides monthly payments to people with limited income and resources who are age 65 or older or have a disability. Children with disabilities or who are blind may also qualify. Since Sept. 1 is Labor Day, SSI recipients can expect to receive two checks in August: one on Aug. 1 and the other on Sept. 1, according to the administration's calendar. Two SSI payments will also be issued on October 1 and on October 31. The same applies to December. This does not mean extra money is being offered to beneficiaries.

Social Security implementing big change this fall. Here's how benefits will be affected
Some individuals who receive Social Security benefit payments may soon notice a change in how they receive their money. Starting Sept. 30, the Social Security Administration (SSA) will no longer issue paper checks for benefit payments in an effort to 'modernize payment systems and enhance service delivery,' the administration wrote in a statement. Specifically, the SSA believes this change will enhance: Speed and efficiency by using Electronic Funds Transfers (EFTs) which process more quickly than paper checks, helping beneficiaries receive their payments on time without delays Cost savings, as issuing paper check costs about 50 cents. whereas an EFT costs less than 15 cents. This shift could save the federal government millions of dollars annually, the SSA reports. Security, because paper checks are 16 times more likely to be lost or stolen compared to electronic payments, increasing the risk of fraud. The transition primarily affects a small group of beneficiaries who have not switched to electronic payment methods already, which is less than 1%, the administration wrote. Notices are being sent out to these individuals to explain the upcoming change and highlight the benefits of switching to electronic payments. Future benefit checks will also include an insert explaining the steps a beneficiary can take to transition to electronic payments. People who currently receive paper checks have two options in how their Social Security payments can be made electronically: Direct deposit, meaning that payments can be deposited directly into their checking or savings account Direct Express Card, for people without a bank account who wish to have a prepaid debit card designed specifically for federal benefit payments. 'In extremely rare circumstances,' the U.S. Department of the Treasury will grant exceptions to the electronic payment mandate. Those who wish to do so, can fill out this waiver which can be printed out and mailed to the Treasury, whose address is on the form. Further questions about this request can be made to the Treasury at 855-290-1545. Beneficiaries can update their payment information through their online Social Security account. More details about the shift and how to enroll in these digital payment options can be found here. People can also call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213.
