When Will Social Security Payments Arrive for Thanksgiving 2024?

Thanksgiving is a holiday celebrated every year in the United States. During this time, the Social Security Administration (SSA) does not send out monthly payments because it’s a federal holiday. This means no checks or direct deposits are made on Thanksgiving Day itself. But how does it affect your payments, and when can you expect your Social Security check?

Why Social Security Does Not Send Payments on Thanksgiving Day

Since Thanksgiving Day is a federal holiday, banks, SSA offices, and other financial institutions are closed. As a result, the SSA cannot process or send payments on this day. Instead, payments that would usually be made on Thanksgiving Day will be sent on the previous business day, which is typically the day before the holiday.

When Are Social Security Payments Sent in November?

The SSA sends Social Security payments to retirees and people with disabilities on specific days each month. In November, the payments are made on the second, third, and fourth Wednesdays of the month. Here’s when to expect your payment in November 2024:

• November 13, 2024: For people born between the 1st and 10th of any month
• November 20, 2024: For people born between the 11th and 20th of any month
• November 27, 2024: For people born between the 21st and 31st of any month

These dates ensure that people get their payments on time, even though the holiday falls on November 28, 2024.

What Happens After Thanksgiving?

If you are eligible for Social Security payments, you can expect your next payment after Thanksgiving. For those receiving payments after Thanksgiving, the SSA has scheduled the next payment for November 29, 2024. This payment will be made to individuals receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI). On November 29, you could receive up to $943, depending on your SSI eligibility.

Who Is Eligible for These Payments?

Eligibility for Social Security payments depends on your birthdate and whether you were already receiving benefits before April 30, 1997. Here’s how it works:

• Born between the 1st and 10th: Payment on November 13
• Born between the 11th and 20th: Payment on November 20
• Born between the 21st and 31st: Payment on November 27

If you are receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or have not been receiving Social Security benefits since before April 30, 1997, you will not be eligible for these particular payments. Social Security payments around Thanksgiving are planned to ensure you get your money on time, despite the holiday. While Thanksgiving Day itself is a federal holiday and no payments are made, Social Security will send checks or direct deposits the day before. For those who qualify, Social Security payments are scheduled for November 13, 20, and 27, 2024. Payments after Thanksgiving will be made on November 29, 2024, for those receiving Supplemental Security Income.
