It got here one day late. When it didn't show up in my account yesterday, I waited until this morning, and then called Social Security to see where it was. The number they had for the account where it was supposed to be deposited had two digits that were transposed - grrr! But she fixed it on her end, and told me to call my bank. I did, and they fixed it, and the money was in my account within an hour.
I know I've earned it, but it still feels as if I'm being paid for not working!
My (older) sister says I am now officially old - and welcomed me to the club
Edited to add: Once I got past the standard and very irritating pre-talk ("if you need this, press one..if you need that, press 2" etc.) the Social Security gal I was eventually connected with was great. She was sympathetic and very nice, and seemed eager to find the solution to my problem. She went through the steps methodically and had it solved within about ten minutes. The next 15 minutes or so, she carefully walked me thought the process I needed to follow when I called or visited my bank. The whole process was much easer than I'd thought it would be!
