In recent weeks, thousands of citizens in the United States have shown their concern about not receiving their monthly Social Security (SSA) payment. The problem has caused many doubts and some nervousness, especially among those who depend on that payment to cover their basic expenses.

However, the SSA has issued a reassuring notice to calm the population: there is a solution, and it's just a click away. The first message from the U.S. Social Security Administration has been clear: if you haven't received your payment, don't panic.

This type of problem can happen for several reasons, and in most cases, it has a quick solution. The SSA reminds that errors like incorrect bank details, account changes, or even minor system glitches can cause temporary delays.

SSA doesn't leave thousands of Americans stranded: do this if you haven't received your payment

The U.S. Social Security itself recommends that citizens follow a few simple steps before getting alarmed. The first thing is to wait three business days from the usual payment date. Many times the payment is delayed due to reasons beyond the SSA, such as holidays or bank failures.

If after that time you still haven't received your payment, you can contact the SSA through different means. One of the fastest is to access your personal account on My Social Security, available on the SSA's official website. There you can see the payment status, if there was any error, or if the money has already been sent to your bank.

Other options to request the payment you're entitled to: pay attention

You can also call Social Security. The main number is 1-800-772-1213, operational Monday through Friday during business hours. If you prefer more personal attention, you can go to the local SSA office, where specialized staff can help you with your case.

Another option is to write through the contact form available on their website. This method is useful if you can't call or travel, although the response time may be a bit longer.

The SSA insists that this type of error is not common, but it can happen. That's why they ask all affected citizens to remain calm. Most problems are solved without the need for major procedures, and in a few days, the payment is normalized.
