They may even get it electronically for all I know. This the first time It's happened since I got here end of Sept 22.

You need to get direct deposit , so it can’t be lost in the mail .
Next step is to contact SOCIAL SECURITY ADMIN find if it was sent

Sorry you are going through this . I may find myself in the same place next week

February will be paid in March, ad infinitum.

I received the letter the week my Social Security deposit should have hit my bank account. No advance warning.

Social Security payments are always paid out "in arrears." The money for January is paid out in February, the money for February is received in March, etc...

Social Security benefits are sent out the month after they are due. “Social Security checks are paid in arrears, so any check received is for the month prior,” says Adam Beaty, a financial planner at Bullogic Wealth Management in Pearland, Texas. For example, your July payment is distributed in August.


The letter you got wasn't about a new hold on payments -- it was simply explaining the monthly payment schedule.
