Have you checked to see if your Social Security payment is due in less than 48 hours? This could be the situation if you were born between the first and tenth of any month. To get this direct deposit or check for up to $3,822, you must meet further requirements and have filed first. For example, you cannot receive SSI (Supplemental Security Income).
Another important criteria for receiving the Social Security payout on December 11, 2024 is to have been on benefits after April 30, 1997. Those who received benefits before May 1997 will receive a fresh payment on January 3, 2025.
Who will receive a Social Security payment of up to $3,822 in 9 days?
The Social Security Administration (SSA) will deliver more payments on December 18. Nevertheless, you cannot receive it if:
- You are on SSI
- You have broken SSA rules
- You got benefits before May 1997
Therefore, if you are not in that circumstance and your birthday falls between the 11th and the 20th, your next payday will be December 18, 2024. Remember that your payout will be based on your previous work history and earnings.
66-67-year-olds who will get $3,822 from Social Security
To be clear, the December 11 and December 18 will be open to any eligible retiree aged 62 or older. However, to receive up to $3,822, you must be at least 66 years and 8 months old.
That is the Full Retirement Age for 2024. Remember that to receive the highest payment at Full Retirement Age, you must have filed at that age, earned the taxable maximum for 35 years, and worked in Social Security-covered employment throughout that time.
Those who want to wait and file at the age of 70 in 2024 may get a reward of up to $4,873. That is significantly greater than the greatest benefit payout from Social Security in 2024. So, delaying retirement helps you obtain a higher settlement.
