March 2025 Social Security payment schedule detailed

Social Security payments for March 2025 are being distributed, with two payments already sent and two remaining. Payment dates depend on the recipient's birthdate, with checks typically sent on the second and third Wednesdays of the month. Beneficiaries who have received Social Security since before May 1997 or those receiving both Social Security and Supplemental Security Income have a different payment schedule. Their payments are sent on fixed dates each month, with adjustments for weekends or holidays. If a payment is missing, recipients should wait three additional mailing days before contacting the Social Security Administration. They can call a national toll-free number for assistance or locate a local office for help.
