Show Social Security Checks October 1 Social security checks, which are normally delivered on the third of the month, will be delivered, Friday, Oct. 1 since the third is a Sunday, Marvin Mortimeyer, social security district manager in Salt Lake city, has announced. THE FRIDAY check delivery is a new policy, Mr. Mortimeyer said. Social security checks will be delivered on a Friday whenever the third falls on a Saturday or Sunday. The same schedule will apply ap-ply to beneficiaries who have their social security checks deposited directly in a bank or other financial institutions. FORMERLY, checks were delivered on Saturday when the normal delivery date fell on Sunday, but many people had to wait until Monday to cash the checks. The new policy will eliminate that inconvenience, in-convenience, Mr. Mortimeyer said. The delivery of SSI checks will not be affected by the new policy. SOCIAL security pays monthly retirement, disability, dis-ability, and survivors benefits to eligible workers and their families. the supplemental security income program makes monthly payments to people with little or no income and limited resources who are 65 and over or blind or disabled. |
