Social security and pension updates in US, Mexico, and Argentina

Various social security and pension updates are affecting beneficiaries in the United States, Mexico, and Argentina.

In the United States, Social Security Administration (SSA) payments for September are scheduled based on birth dates. Beneficiaries born between the 1st and 10th of the month are set to receive payments on September 9, with subsequent groups receiving funds on the 16th and 23rd. Experts advise individuals considering early retirement at age 62 to carefully evaluate their long-term financial needs, as early claims result in permanent reductions to monthly benefits.

In Mexico, the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS) is launching a digital Employer Identification Card (TIP Digital) on September 10. This digital tool, accessible via the Buzón IMSS using an e.firma, aims to simplify administrative tasks for employers, such as submitting filings and managing affiliation movements, while eliminating the need for physical cards.

In Argentina, Banco Santander, BBVA, and CaixaBank have announced early pension payments for September 2026. Santander and BBVA will deposit funds on September 25, while CaixaBank will process payments on September 24.
