Around 74 million Americans receive Social Security benefits and about seven million receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) to help cover monthly expenses. Eligibility for Social Security retirement benefits generally requires being at least 62 years old and contributing to Social Security for about 10 years through the credit system. Full retirement age ranges from 66 to 67. Social Security payments are issued on Wednesdays based on beneficiaries' birthdays: December 10 for birthdays 1–10, December 17 for 11–20, and December 24 for 21–31. Beneficiaries who began benefits before 1997 are paid on a fixed monthly date. Creating an online account allows users to check eligibility and estimated benefit amounts.
