September 2026 Social Security retirement benefits follow the SSA schedule: payments go out on Wednesdays—Sept. 9 for birthdays 1–10, Sept. 16 for 11–20, Sept. 23 for 21–31 (Sept. 3 for those who started benefits before May 1997). Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments typically occur on the first business day of the month (Sept. 1, 2026), with additional 2026 SSI dates (Oct 1, Oct 30, Dec 1, Dec 31). Note the September check covers August benefits, while September benefits arrive in October. The SSA also provides an online calendar for budgeting the full 2026/2027 schedule.

The first round of August Social Security payments will be issued on August 12 for beneficiaries born 1–10, following the SSA’s standard Wednesday schedule.

The article also lists SSI dates for the rest of 2026 (Sept. 1; Oct. 1; Oct. 30 for November; Dec. 1 and Dec. 31 into January 2027) and notes ongoing long-term funding concerns for Social Security, though payments will proceed on the normal schedule this month.
