However, we could expect to receive payment on April 9 for Social Security retirement benefits, regardless of the type of retirement, if we have already accepted such a payment.
Citizen in numbers, now into the thousands, will come April 9, 2025, receive retirement checks by the hundreds as compared to the amounts received in April of the previous year. So, if you’ve had your retirement support accepted, it’s best to scan through the requirements to see if you can get your payment credited to your checking account.
Moreover, it may happen that we collect the check on the same day that it is sent, since the chosen mode of collection will determine whether we receive the retirement payment earlier or later. It implies that using the fastest scheme of collection, we will be enjoying the benefit from Social Security retirement right away-in effect from this 9th of April- only if he or she is eligible.
The remaining retirees still have yet to be worried about the collection date, for as far as we are not on the list who are to receive their benefits on April 9, there will still be the possibility of checks flowing towards us in the following days-this time on April 16 and 23, 2025.
The retiree’s list for Social Security payment on April 9
April 9 this year is the date when the group 2 retirees will receive their Social Security payment. To be qualified as one of them, two requirements must be satisfied. Once these are met, then the consideration will be automatically granted without difficulty.

The two requirements are:
- Have a benefit accepted since after May 1997.
- Have your birthday between the 1st and 10th day of any month.
- So, the specific group qualifies you for at least any payment to the disability retirees, age retirees, spouses, or other beneficiaries.
- No doubt, this is important information in arranging everything with regard to the economy of our household.
Social Security has a faster collection method
We could toll the Social Security check without activating the faster collection method, but it is likely not to arrive until a few days after April 9, 2025. Really, the money will get there anyway; we’ll just wait longer for it.
With Direct Deposit, however, Social Security appears immediately in the retiree’s checking account. So if we have that collection method activated, we won’t have to wait a single day to get the benefit. This method is not obligatory, it’s just that activation of this method will be faster to get the money.
