Retirees born between the 1st and 10th of a month will receive the first round of payments on Aug. 13. The second round of payments will go out on Aug. 20 to retirees born between the 11th and 20th, and the third round will be distributed on Aug. 27 to those born on or after the 21st.

When you receive your check depends on how long you have been collecting Social Security and your date of birth. Note that SSI recipients get two checks this month and none the next

Withholding occurs when the SSA retains part of a monthly benefit payment until the overpayment debt is fully repaid.
