Retirees who receive social security benefits will get their monthly payment this week.
Why It Matters
The Social Security Administration (SSA) pays out retirement, survivor and disability benefits to more than 70 million Americans on a monthly basis. It forms a bedrock of income for millions who are retired, disabled or the survivor of a deceased worker.
Payments are administered in one lump sum for most recipients, but because of the large number of recipients, not every claimant receives their payment on the same date each month.
What To Know
On Wednesday, June 11, benefit payments are scheduled to be made to those with a birthday between the 1st and 10th of any given month in the year.
Anyone who hasn't received their payment on the expected date should allow three working days before contacting the SSA. Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays are not working days.

GETTY
How Much Social Security Can I Get?
As of January 2025, the average monthly Social Security retirement benefit came in at $1,976. However, the exact amount each person receives depends on their lifetime earnings and the number of years they paid in payroll taxes over the course of their working life.
Those who retire at age 62 can receive up to $2,831 per month. Waiting until full retirement age (67) increases the maximum benefit to $4,018. For those who delay claiming until age 70, the monthly benefit rises to a maximum of $5,108.
If you receive Supplemental Security Income—for elderly, blind and disabled Americans with little to no income—the 2025 maximum is $967 for individuals and $1,450 for couples. However, payments may be lower than this as they are based on income, living situation and other eligibility factors.
Further Payment Dates For June
In June, benefits will be paid on the following dates:
Wednesday, June 18 : Benefits for those born between the 11th and 20th.
: Benefits for those born between the 11th and 20th. Wednesday, June 25: Benefits for those with birthdays between the 21st and 30th.
Social Security Fairness Act
More than a million Americans who were impacted by the passage of the Social Security Fairness Act earlier this year have already begun receiving updated benefits. But the SSA recently updated beneficiaries expecting higher and retroactive payments, saying there are delays to some claims.
Updated benefit amounts, as well as retroactive payments back to December 2023, began in April. While 91 percent of the those impacted are now receiving full benefits, there are still some "complex cases" that are taking longer to update.
"For the many complex cases that cannot be processed automatically, additional time is required to manually update the records and pay both retroactive benefits and the new benefits amount," the SSA said in an update on its website. "We are expediting these cases now."

Donald Trump's Approval Rating Plunges
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. President Donald Trump's approval rating has taken a plunge, according to new polling. The latest J.L. Partners/Daily Mail poll, conducted on June 6 among 1,006 registered voters, found that 47 percent of respondents approve of the president's job performance, while 53 percent disapprove, giving him a net approval rating of -6 points. That is down from an approval rating of 50 percent in May. However, it is still up from the 45 percent approval rating recorded in the J.L. Partners/Daily Mail April poll, a second-term low. Both polls had a margin of error of 3.1 percentage points. The latest YouGov/Economist poll, conducted between June 6 and 9 among 1,533 adults, shows Trump's approval rating at 43 percent, down from 45 percent the previous week, while his disapproval rating stands at 52 percent, up from 49 percent the week before. The most recent poll had a margin of error of 3.5 percentage points. Why It Matters Recent surveys have shown Trump's approval rating creeping back up after a period of decline following the introduction of his "Liberation Day" tariffs in April, which led to a decline in the stock market. However, some polls published in recent days reveal a more complex picture of Trump's support.

President Donald Trump speaks during a roundtable with business leaders at the White House on June 9, 2025. Evan Vucci/AP What To Know While some polls show Trump's approval rating declining, they stand apart from the general trend recently, which has seen his approval rating creep back up in recent weeks after the fallout from his "Liberation Day" tariffs. That includes the most recent ActiVote poll, which showed that Trump's approval rating stands at 46 percent, while 50 percent disapprove. That is up from last month, when 45 percent approved and 51 percent disapproved, and breaks a trend that had seen Trump's approval ratings in the poll decline each month since January. The numbers from May are also significantly better than Trump's average over the 48 months of his first presidency (41 percent), surpassing former President Joe Biden's average approval rating for his full term (41 percent) and his approval rating for his final year (40 percent). The ActiVote poll carries a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4 percentage points. In the latest YouGov/Economist poll, Trump's approval rating increased by 1 point to 45 percent, while his disapproval rating decreased by 3 points to 49 percent. Meanwhile, in the Trafalgar Group's latest poll, conducted May 30 to June 1, 54 percent of voters approved, while 46 percent disapproved—a net approval rating of +8. That was up from a month ago, when a survey conducted by pollsters with Insider Advantage between April 30 and May 1 put Trump's approval rating at 46 percent, while 44 percent disapproved. Newsweek's poll tracker also shows Trump's approval rating trending upward. Currently, an average of 48 percent approve of Trump's job performance, while 50 percent disapprove. Last week, Trump's approval rating stood at 47 percent, with 49 percent disapproving. A month ago, according to the tracker, the president's approval rating stood at 44 percent, while his disapproval rate was firmly in the 50s. However, for the most part, Trump's approval and disapproval ratings appear stable or slightly improving, suggesting that while he's not gaining significant new support, he's also not losing ground. Poll Date Approve Disapprove Rasmussen 9-Jun 51 48 YouGov/Economist June 6-9 43 52 Morning Consult June 6-8 47 51 J.L. Partners 6-Jun 47 53 YouGov/CBS June 4-6 45 55 Quantus Insights June 1-4 49 48 RMG Research May 27-June 3 51 46 YouGov/Economist May 30-June 2 45 49 Morning Consult May 30-June 2 46 51 Trafalgar Group May 30-June 1 54 46 The latest Quantus Insights poll put his approval rating at 49 percent, up one from last month, while his disapproval rating remained at 48 percent. In the most recent Morning Consult poll, the president's approval rating stood at 47 percent, up from 46 percent the previous week. In comparison, 51 percent said they disapproved of his job performance for the third consecutive week. In the latest CBS/YouGov poll, Trump's approval rating was unchanged at 45 percent, while 55 percent disapproved for a second month running What Happens Next As the effects of his economic, immigration and other major policies come into sharper relief, Trump's approval rating is likely to fluctuate.

McDonald's Shares Slump as GLP-1 Risks Spur Rare Sell Rating
(Bloomberg) -- McDonald's Corp. shares slumped on Tuesday after Redburn Atlantic gave the burger chain its sole sell rating, saying shifting consumer patterns due to weight-loss drugs and inflation are cause for concern. Trump Said He Fired the National Portrait Gallery Director. She's Still There. NYC Mayoral Candidates All Agree on Building More Housing. But Where? Senator Calls for Closing Troubled ICE Detention Facility in New Mexico California Pitches Emergency Loans for LA, Local Transit Systems Shares of McDonald's fell as much as 1.7% in Tuesday trading on the downgrade, a two-notch cut from Redburn's previous buy rating. Redburn held a buy rating on the stock since initiating coverage in 2023. As more Americans turn to GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic to lose weight, McDonald's could see as much as a $428 million annual impact to revenue, representing about 1% of system sales, Redburn Atlantic analysts Chris Luyckx and Edward Lewis wrote. 'A 1% drag today could easily build to 10% or more over time, particularly for brands skewed toward lower-income consumers or group occasions.' The analysts also cut McDonald's price target to a Street-low $260, implying a nearly 15% decline from where the stock closed on Monday. Shares have declined for seven straight days, on track for their longest losing streak in nearly 12 years, after closing just below a record high in mid-May. Redburn's lowered recommendation was just the latest downgrade for the fast-food giant, which was recently knocked down to hold-equivalent ratings at Morgan Stanley, Loop Capital and Erste Group. Analysts remain largely split on the stock, with 22 buy-equivalent ratings, 18 hold-equivalent ratings and an average price target of $332, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. McDonald's US same-stores sales fell 3.6% in the first-quarter of this year, marking the largest decline since 2020 when people were stuck at home during the pandemic. Fast-food restaurants like McDonald's have also seen a decline in traffic in 40 of the past 43 months, according to the analysts. In addition to the McDonald's call, Redburn also launched coverage of Domino's Pizza Inc. with a sell rating, while starting Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. as a new neutral. YUM! Brands, Inc., which owns popular brands KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut, was raised to buy from neutral given the stock's 'reasonable' valuation. Despite the slump, McDonald's has increased its average transaction amount through pricing, but lower-income consumers are now opting to eat more at home as the price difference between home and restaurant food increases, according to the report. 'While the brand has historically benefited from consumer trade-down during periods of pressure, recent years of outsized menu pricing have created value-perception challenges, contributing to persistent traffic softness,' the analysts wrote. Still, McDonald's shares have risen 3.8% so far this year, but without improved value proposition and menu innovation, continued growth may not be sustainable, the analysts added. --With assistance from Peyton Forte.
