Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) provides benefits to millions of Americans who unable to work due to their disability. Many of these people rely on their checks to pay for necessities and if a check is late, it may have catastrophic consequences.
SSDI checks are distributed monthly on the same date each month. The date of delivery is dependent on the beneficiaries’ birthday. The Social Security Administration provides this example:
|
Payment Days |
|
| Day of Birth | Assigned Payment Day |
| 1st – 10th | Second Wednesday of the month |
| 11th – 20th | Third Wednesday of the month |
| 21st – 31st |
Fourth Wednesday of the month |
If your check is late there are a few things you should do first to make sure it is a temporary problem. First, have you moved recently and did you provide the SSA with your updated address? Secondly, is there a change in your banking? A change in bank account, updated direct deposit information, or using a new bank may delay your SSDI check.
Reach out to your local SSA office and make sure they have the more updated information on file. A more effective option is to reach out to a disability attorney who may be able to provide more answers and provide solutions.
