April Social Security: Who Will Get Their Social Security Check on Wednesday, April 23, 2025?

Social Security payments are scheduled for Wednesdays throughout the month, with those born between the 21st and 31st receiving their monthly check.

April Social Security: The Social Security Administration (SSA) will stick to its regular payment schedule on Wednesday, April 23. On this day, people born between the 21st and 31st of any month will receive their monthly Social Security check.

SSA sends payments based on birth dates to keep things organized. Those born between the 1st and 10th get paid on the second Wednesday, while people with birthdays from the 11th to the 20th are paid on the third Wednesday. Anyone born after the 20th is paid on the fourth Wednesday.

SSI Payment Schedule and Possible Double Check in May

Besides retirement benefits, the SSA also sends money to people through the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. This is for people who have serious disabilities and very low income. The amount they get depends on their household size and how they live. In April 2025, people who get SSI received their payment on Tuesday, April 1.

If someone doesn’t get their SSI payment on the expected date, the SSA asks them to wait three business days before reporting the problem. Most of these payments go out on time because the SSA uses electronic systems that are usually very reliable.

In May, there’s something important to know. SSI recipients will get two payments. The first check will come on Thursday, May 1. The second one will arrive on Friday, May 30. This happens because June 1 falls on a Sunday. The SSA doesn’t send payments on weekends or holidays, so they send them early instead.

How Much Will People Get from SSA in April?

In April, many retirees will see different amounts depending on when they started receiving their benefits. People who retired early at age 62 are getting an average monthly payment of $2,831. If someone waited until age 67 to retire, they can receive up to $3,822 per month. The biggest amount goes to those who delayed retirement until age 70. They can get up to $5,108 each month.

This system of different payments based on retirement age is designed to encourage people to wait longer before retiring, if they can.
