The same day, the SSA will also release payments for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and survivor benefits.
Who Will Receive a Social Security Check on Wednesday, June 25?
Out of the 70 million Americans who collect retirement, SSDI, or survivor benefits, most receive their payments on one of three Wednesdays each month.
A recipient’s payment date depends on their birthday.
On June 25, the SSA will send out payments to those born between the 21st and 31st of any month.
This will be the final Wednesday payment for June, following earlier disbursements on the 11th and the 18th.

Who Gets Paid Outside the Wednesday Schedule?
If you started receiving retirement, SSDI, or survivor benefits before May 1997, you typically get paid on the third day of each month, no matter when your birthday is.
Additionally, Supplemental Security Income (SSI)—a separate benefit for low-income individuals over 65 or with a disability—is usually paid on the first of each month.
If you receive both SSI and another SSA benefit, you normally get the SSI on the first and the other benefit on the third.
Since June began on a Sunday this year, the SSA issued SSI payments early—on Friday, May 30, the nearest business day.
