The Social Security Administration sends out payments on the second, third, and fourth Wednesdays of each month.
The amount of money varies based on the age when an individual retires and has no income guidelines. For example, those aged 62, the youngest age to receive payments, can get up to $2,572 per month, while those retiring at 70 can receive up to $4,555 per month, according to the Social Security Administration. Those who retire at the full age of retirement, 67, can see a maximum check of up to $3,627 per month.

Regular Social Security checks are different from other payments given out by the SSA, such as disability insurance or Supplemental Security Income. Those checks are distributed on a different schedule.
The amount of each benefit is expected to rise by 3.2% in 2024, according to the SSA. The increase will be the same percentage for all payments sent out by the administration, including retirement and disability pay.
