Social Security payment Aug 12: Who gets a check this week and when others will be paid
Social Security payments arrive Aug. 12 for some beneficiaries. Check who gets paid this week and when other Social Security checks are due.
On Wednesday, Aug. 12, millions of Americans will receive their Social Security benefits payment. The Social Security Administration (SSA) sends out these payments on different Wednesdays each month, depending on a person's birthday. Those born between the 1st and 10th of a month receive their payment on Aug. 12, according to the SSA's 2026 payment calendar.
This is part of the agency's regular monthly schedule, which sends benefits to retired people, disabled workers, and other eligible Americans. However, not every recipient will get their August check on this date, as it depends on their birth-date group. Some people who started receiving Social Security before May 1997 or those who also receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) have different payment schedules.
Despite financial challenges, the SSA's current payment calendar shows regular payments continuing as scheduled.
