the phone. they told me that all SS checks are and have always been a month behind. So when I get DD at the bank. in December it was the November check, January check was for December and January check will be in my DD at the bank in February. In case of the 16th landing on the week end , the bank will post a pending and it will be deposited. They do the same for my pension. She wouldn't tell me why it is a month behind. I assumed if the check came in March , that it was the March check ---it is the February check. Federal budget is a month behind.
