If you receive your Social Security this month, please post and let us know.

[NBachers]

I won’t be receiving benefits until Wednesday the 12th, so I need the reassurance.

I’m sure you understand.

[umroman]

1. This is my week

and I'll be watching.

[Girard442]

2. My bank says it's being processed. Typical, for them.

[MiHale]

3. Ours came early...usually today the 3rd...

But our credit union is redesigning their website some all transactions were done a little early. Which leads me to more questions but…we were just happy for one more month.

[FraDon]

4. Mine arrived promptly this morning.

n/t

[CTriverYankee]

5. Received

Hit my bank account this morning.

[Ritabert]

6. Mine isn't due for a couple of weeks but I'll let you know

[Foolacious]

7. We got ours, but....

My wife cannot get logged into her SSA account. I logged in to mine without trouble.

Watching....

[Silent Type]

8. You'll get your benefits. I got mine and there is no way trump will tick off 70 million retirees, half GOPers.

Not to say they won't mess with retirement age, etc., a bit, but it'll go through Congress.

[rurallib]

9. We got ours - one today and one a week ago

sort of on time

[NBachers]

10. Thanks everybody! I'll be trying to log into my account after I get home from work tonight.

[yellowdogintexas]

11. mine is 4th Thursday, Mr YD is 2nd Wed

I read the other day that your distribution date is connected to your birth month. He is June, I am October, so following that logic it makes sense for his to come earlier in the month.

[sinkingfeeling]

12. Mine is scheduled for Feb. 19th.

[EYESORE 9001]

14. Hey, mine too!

SS buddies

[SilverDawg]

22. Mine, too and

it was deposited on time early this a.m,

[sinkingfeeling]

23. My full amount is in my bank account this morning.

[Fresh_Start]

13. Received 1st of month

No problem yet

[Lulu KC]

15. Made it just fine

I really don't think they want a kajillion senior citizens storming the White House just yet, though I did see yesterday that they are putting up new barriers. I think we're a little farther down on their list of people's lives to ruin. And I don't think either the Senate or the House would take it lying down, either--even most of the Republicans. I hope I'm right!

[EarthAbides]

16. We got ours

My husband and I got ours today, the 3rd, direct deposit. My husband used to have Direct Express...

[Tess49]

17. We received both of ours early today.

[synni]

18. I'm on SSI

Pmt arrived promptly on Feb 1 at midnight.

[NBachers]

19. Thanks everybody!

[ShazzieB]

20. Will do!

I know how you feel; i am very uneasy myself. My husband's benefits are due on the 11th, and mine aren't due till the 25th.

[JCMach1]

21. My mom is still waiting. 8th fell on a weekend

Though. I caretake for her and every penny counts. Of course very nervous it doesn't show up.

[Marthe48]

24. My SS was deposited

The threats coming from felon and dud are abuse. Even if Social Security continues to disburse payments, the threats will continue in an effort to demoralize us through anxiety. The threats will also undermine the economy, because we'll do our best to limit any extra spending.
Many of us have not experienced abuse in our personal lives, and so might not recognize the clues or have the tools to fight back. I didn't accept abuse in my relationships and either worked with people to change their behavior or walked away. I'm not sure how we can walk away from our own government, but I hope we figure out a strategy.
In the meantime, we can remember FDR's quote: "We have nothing to fear but fear itself." I didn't think I'd have to feel fear when I thought of the U.S. government, but there we are.
Hang in there and have find some joy, some enjoyment.

[Yonnie3]

25. Mine came as scheduled yesterday n/t

[livetohike]

26. Received mine yesterday. My husband received

his last Wednesday .

[ariadne0614]

27. Got mine yesterday, but. . .

it’s infuriating that we are being forced to wonder.

[ultralite001]

28. SS was pending yesterday...

Funds were released + available today…

Color me relieved…

[Cobalt Violet]

29. Got mine this morning.

[redwitch]

30. We got ours yesterday, right on schedule.

I was nervous too.

[chouchou]

31. I carefully checked my bank balance yesterday...the SS was there.

I was a little scared that it might not appear..

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

32. So did you receive this month's benefits?

Did you get them on the 12, which was two weeks ago?

[NBachers]

39. Yes, mine arrived right on schedule.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

42. Quelle Surprise!

People here seem convinced all SS is going to disappear within a couple of weeks.

Maybe some of them are finally realizing that their elderly mothers will be moving in with them once SS goes away.

[NBachers]

43. Why the snide reply?

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

44. Because a snide reply is called for.

I am apparently the only person here who thinks there may be an odd Republican or two who understands that if they do away with Social Security, Mom will be living with them. And not a lot of them really want Mom doing that.

And I'm also snide because every time I point out that SS is NOT going to be eliminated all of a sudden, people here repeat that of course the R's will happily impoverish their own mothers and grandmothers. As low an opinion I have of them, nope.

[perfessor]

33. Both of our arrived on schedule.

Mine, yesterday. Spousal unit’s was two weeks ago.

[virgdem]

34. We both received our SS checks

[surfered]

35. Got mine normally Feb 19th

[sorcrow]

36. Got mine this morning

[OLDMDDEM]

37. My wife and I both received our deposits.

[SuzyandPuffpuff]

38. So far

Yes

[NBachers]

40. Good news from everybody! Thanks

[GardenGnome]

41. Just received mine

I wasn't expecting a deposit until tomorrow, and it wasn't there this morning. But when I checked late this afternoon, it was in my account. This means that everyone outside the U.S. who receives Social Security should have a deposit coming their way. Not sure how long different banks in different countries take to process these monies. That could account for a slight delay.

[Drum]

45. Just received my FIRST payment!

I applied in mid November, and didn’t hear anything for 3 months. I’d check online every week, but it was always said to be “processing.” Concerning!

Then ten days ago I received an email saying I’d been cleared through the process, and this morning awoke to news it’d been deposited in my bank.

Frankly, I’m astonished!

[NBachers]

46. Congratulations - here is for a smooth and long lasting situation.

[cyclonefence]

47. We got ours

direct deposit
