April 2025 Social Security Payments: When will you get your money|

As April 2025 approaches, people taking social security benefits want to know when their payment will come. Due to rising inflation and new rules, this has become even more important, especially for those who are dependent on Social Security for their financial needs.

Social Security Payment Schedule – April 2025

Social Security Administration (SSA) follows a fixed schedule:

April 1, 2025 (Tuesday): SSI recipients will get payment, including 2.5% COLA (Cost of Living Adjustment)

April 3, 2025 (Thursday): Those who have been taking Social Security since May 1997 or those who are taking both SSI and Social Security, their payment will come on this day.

April 9, 2025 (Wednesday): Those whose birthday is between 1st to 10th date, they will get payment on the second Wednesday.

April 16, 2025 (Wednesday): Those whose birthday is between 11-2-April, their payment will come on the third Wednesday.

April 23, 2025 (Wednesday): Those whose birthday is between 21-31 April, their payment will be received on the fourth Wednesday.

Impact of Social Security Fairness Act

The Social Security Fairness Act passed in January 2025 has had a major impact on the benefits of government employees. Due to the repeal of Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO), payments of some people may increase. If this affects you, SSA will inform you by sending an email.

What to do if payment does not come on time?

If your Social Security payment does not come on time, do not worry! SSA says to wait 3 business days after the payment date and call your local SSA officer or 1-800-772-1213.

The Social Security payments of April 2025 are going to be important, especially because of the new rules and COLA. It is important to keep track of payments on time so that final planning can happen smoothly!
