June 18 Social Security Payment: In the United States, the Social Security Administration (SSA) is getting ready to send out more retirement payments for June. These checks go to retired people who have worked most of their lives and are now receiving their benefits. Since 1997, the SSA has been following a system that sends payments based on a person’s birthday. This helps spread out the payments more smoothly.
People who were born between the 1st and the 10th of any month already got their checks on Wednesday, June 11. The next group those with birthdays from the 11th to the 20th will get their money on Wednesday, June 18. The final group for June, those born from the 21st to the 31st, will get their checks on June 25. These payments happen every Wednesday to keep things organized and steady.

SSA also has another program called Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Which help low income people, especially those over 65 or living with a disability. These people usually get their payment on the 1st of each month.
