I have a very basic question about starting SS payments. When I apply and I want my first check to come in May 2023, do I apply for SS to start in April 2023 (because the 1st check comes the next month)? Or do I apply for SS to start in May 2023? I'm not very clear on that.
You would start your SS benefits in April which will be paid in May.
If you are not FRA then your prorated amount will be based on your age in April.
