The April 2023 Social Security Checks from the Social Security Administration (SSA) may hit your bank accounts any time soon.
Who is Eligible for April 2023 Social Security Checks?
The Social Security Administration pays benefits to disabled and retired workers monthly. However, in April, some people will not receive their April 2023 Social Security Checks on the usual date.
This is due to the agency’s complex payment schedule, which is based on a recipient’s date of birth, type of benefit, and sign-up date.
According to MSN, in particular, those who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) can expect to receive their payments on the first of the month, but not always.
The average monthly Social Security payment in January 2023 was $1,961, while the average SSI payment was $677.
The amount of April 2023 Social Security checks beneficiaries receive varies depending on several factors, including when they began claiming Social Security and their Primary Insurance Amount.

When Will SSA Release April 2023 Social Security Check?
Starting April 3rd, the Social Security Administration will begin to send out April 2023 Social Security Checks to people who have been receiving benefits since 1997 or before that date.
For the rest, the April 2023 Social Security Checks schedule is based on their date of birth, with payments going out on April 12 for those born between the 1st and 10th of any month, April 19 for those born between the 11th and 20th, and April 26 for those born between the 21st and 31st.
It’s worth noting that the first SSI payments of the year are moved forward to the end of December to reflect the cost-of-living adjustments implemented by the SSA annually.
These adjustments are intended to help keep up with the rising cost of living, and the amount of the increase can vary from year to year.
In summary, while some people may experience a delay in receiving their April 2023 Social Security Checks, the SSA has a complex payment schedule in place to ensure that everyone receives their benefits promptly. Beneficiaries should check with the agency if they have any questions or concerns about their payment schedule.
