I'm trying to help my parents on their finances and one thing has me really confused.
The dates that they get their direct deposit from social security make no sense.
If they got the check in the mail , then it should be in the mailbox on the 3rd of every month, unless that day falls on a holiday or weekend then it comes earlier.
I've tried to make sense of the deposit dates, counting weekends, odd numbered days in the months, and calling social security.
Social security just says, the money has to be in the account on the 3rd, but has no idea when it will exactly be deposited.
It would help if I knew what days they can or cannot write checks.
It also makes keeping an accurate balance of the account a bit annoying because I have to keep logging into their account online to check if the deposit is in the account.
I'm hoping someone else has been through this and knows how social security decides deposit dates. All I can do for now is say its their anytime from the 27th to the 31st.
From looking at the bank statements, these are the dates they got the money deposited into their accounts for 2007.
