An executive order from the White House will end the use of paper Social Security checks on Sept. 30. This means all payments after that date will be sent digitally, including direct deposits, debit and credit cards, digital wallets and other real-time payment systems to reduce the overall cost of sending physical checks to beneficiaries.

The distribution of payments depends on which day of the month a retiree was born; retirees born after the 21st will receive this month's final payment.

The final round of July Social Security checks will be distributed July 24. See who qualifies, payment amounts, and a change for SSI recipients.
