Updated Social Security Payment Schedule in April 2025

Social Security payments will be distributed across four days in April, requiring beneficiaries to check their payment schedule individually.

Eligible recipients can rest assured that they will receive their monthly payment throughout the month. However, those seeking a specific payment date must carefully examine their calendar.

To qualify for the $1,720 monthly payment, beneficiaries must belong to Group 1 retirees. This group includes individuals who retired before May 1997 and do not have Direct Deposit activated.

Grouping is based on retirement year and birthday, with different criteria applying to Groups 2-4. Beneficiaries should check their specific group assignment to determine when they can expect their payment.

It’s worth noting that cost-of-living adjustments (COLA) will impact Social Security benefits in 2025, but April payments will be consistent with previous months’ amounts.
