On Wednesday, September 3, 2025, the Social Security Administration (SSA) continues its scheduled benefits distribution, a crucial date for millions of retirees, people with disabilities, and survivors.
However, not all beneficiaries will receive their payments today, as payments are staggered throughout the month based on birth dates and the type of benefit.
Who Will Receive Social Security Payments on September 3, 2025?
On this date, the following groups will receive their payments:
Retirees who have been receiving Social Security benefits since before 1997.
Retirement beneficiaries, spouses, and survivors who also qualify for Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
Who Will Receive Payments Later in September 2025?
The SSA uses a staggered payment system based on birth dates. Here’s the breakdown for September:
September 10: Payments for those born between the 1st and 10th of the month.
September 17: Payments for those born between the 11th and 20th of the month.
September 24: Payments for those born between the 21st and 31st of the month.
To avoid confusion, it’s important for retirees and other beneficiaries to refer to the SSA’s official payment schedule for the most accurate and timely information.
