In publication 05-10931, the Social Security Administration (SSA) set the payment schedule for all of 2026 and the advances that will take place because of calendar restrictions.
To understand the distribution logic established by the federal agency, it is important to note that the date on which each beneficiary will receive their benefit will depend directly on when they were born and on the type of payment they are due to receive.

SSA payment advance: In what situations is this measure taken
When the first of the month falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the payment of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is advanced to the nearest previous business day, as can be seen in the case of October, when two deposits are received: this month’s and next month’s.
If the payment date falls on a Wednesday, but it is a federal holiday, the money will be delivered on the previous Tuesday, as happens in November because Veterans Day will be observed on the 11th.
