Ida May Fuller (September 6, 1874 – January 27, 1975) was the first beneficiary of recurring monthly Social Security payments.
Below are the 2021 military pay dates and schedules. DFAS military pay dates (active duty and reserve) are scheduled for the 1 st and 15 th of every month unless those dates fall on a weekend or holiday. Whenever a payday falls on a weekend or holiday, pay is issued on the last workday preceding the 1st and the 15th. The first payment you may receive is postponed by one week's worth of payment, called the waiting week. Basically, every claimant who qualifies for unemployment serves an unpaid 'waiting week' that begins the first week they become eligible to receive benefits. In order to be paid benefits, you must request payment every week. For the first check, the IRS used banking information from your 2018 or 2019 tax return to send your payment. For the second check, the IRS said it's using just your 2019 tax return. Next, we’ll determine when your first mortgage payment is due, based on what was discussed earlier in this section. Let’s say you’re scheduled to close on May 15. This means your first mortgage payment after closing is due on July 1.
Biography[edit]
Fuller was born on September 6, 1874 on a farm outside of Ludlow, Vermont. She attended school in Ludlow. In 1905, after working as a school teacher, she became a legal secretary.Fuller never married and had no children. She lived alone most of her life in Ludlow, but spent eight years near the end of her life living with her niece, Hazel Perkins, and her family in Brattleboro, Vermont.
Fuller filed her retirement claim on November 4, 1939, having worked under Social Security for a little short of three years. While running an errand, she dropped by the Rutland Social Security office to ask about possible benefits. She would later observe: 'It wasn't that I expected anything, mind you, but I knew I'd been paying for something called Social Security and I wanted to ask the people in Rutland about it.'
Her claim was taken by Claims Clerk, Elizabeth Corcoran Burke, and transmitted to the Claims Division in Washington, D.C. for adjudication. The case was adjudicated and reviewed and sent to the Treasury Department for payment in January 1940. The claims were grouped in batches of 1,000 and a Certification List for each batch was sent to Treasury. Fuller's claim was the first one on the first Certification List and so the first Social Security check, check number 00-000-001, was issued to Fuller in the amount of $22.54 (equivalent to $411 in 2019) and dated January 31, 1940. During her lifetime, she collected a total of $22,888.92 in Social Security benefits and paid in $24.75.[1][2]
Fuller died on January 27, 1975 in Brattleboro, Vermont.
