Q: When can I expect to receive my one-time economic stimulus payment? Answer: The Social Security Administration plans to pay all eligible Social Security and SSI beneficiaries by late May 2009. Beneficiaries should expect to receive the payment no later than the first week of June 2009. The one-time payment will be a separate payment, and will not be included in the regular monthly benefit payment. Q: How will I receive my one-time economic stimulus payment? Answer: The Social Security Administration will deliver the payment in the same way they currently deliver a Social Security or SSI benefit. If they deliver your monthly benefit by check, they will deliver the one-time payment by check.
