When these sort of holidays come around, it has had an effect on my SSA payment to my Thai bank account. At first, I would get payments on the same day that SSA paid out my check. Then, for quite some time, I was put at the back of the line. And, as with the instance described, I would receive my check the next day or, in case of holidays, some time four days after the SSA payout. Right now, I'm back to getting same day checks. Received mine in my Bangkok Bank account this month on 2 May in the morning.

My anecdote...

My SS application approved in 2 weeks (under Biden)

SS deposited $0 in my bank account a month prior to benefit date to verify my bank account works (under Trump)

 

2nd Wednesday of month, SS money in my account (under Trump)

 

Conclusion: Musk & DOGE mooks haven't broke it yet 👍

 

Woo hoo 🙌 

 

Status quo feels like a "victory" 😜

Go to your Mysocialsecurity, if you have one. It tells you to change to Login.gov. Everyone;s supposed to do it.

I just logged in using ID ME,  same as always. except this:

Next Payment Date: June 4, 2025

Payments are made on the 3rd of every month

Payments are made by Direct Deposit

Why June 4th when payments are made on the 3rd...or business day before???

FYI, the annual form 7162  (are you still alive) usually arrives mid-June so keep an eye out for that.

 

Not much on the SSA blog recently...

I am a fourth week so mine needs to be before the end of the month. More than two days late I would be disqualified.

June 3 is the Queen's Birthday.  So even if they pay you on the 3rd the banks are closed and the wire won't go through until June 4.  FYI.

With all the talk about what's going on in the Social Security world, has anyone had any problems yet? Also, has anyone received theirs today who had the 3rd as their pay date? I called my bank and they said no transfer today, although it's supposed to come in on Friday if your date occurs on a weekend. He said it still could come today, although it's never been this late 13:00, and if not, it would come on Tuesday , as Monday is a Thai holiday.

i think you need to make a call to SS and ask where your money is at? Because the Thai bank should have received it within a few days from the 3rd and posted it into your account within 2 working days after getting it.
