Millions of Social Security recipients will not get a benefit check this month due to a calendar quirk.

Some 7.5 million Americans who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) will be affected.

SSI is a means-tested program which provides monthly checks for disabled Americans and low-income seniors over 65, which typically arrive on the first of the month.

As September 1 fell on a Sunday this year, SSI payments for the month were instead sent out on August 30.

That means that recipients will not receive a check during the month of September, and then October payments will be deposited as usual on Tuesday, October 1.

While this calendar quirk was set out in the Social Security Administration’s payment schedule in advance, some Americans still may not be aware of the shift in dates.
