Social Security Plan

A Convenient Billing Option for Social Security and Disability Recipients

Do you ever find yourself waiting for your Social Security or disability check to arrive after your electric bill is due? Tri-County Electric Cooperative understands how frustrating that can be — and we're here to help.

Our Social Security Plan is designed to better align your billing cycle with the timing of your government benefit payments. With this plan, you can choose when your electric bill arrives based on when you typically receive your check — helping you avoid late payments and better manage your monthly budget.

How It Works

When you enroll in the Social Security Plan, you can select the billing cycle that best matches your payment schedule:

Cycle 10 – First Week of the Month
Cycle 20 – Second Week of the Month
Cycle 30 – Third Week of the Month
Cycle 40 – Fourth Week of the Month

Your electric meter will still be read approximately every 30 days for billing purposes, but your bill will be mailed based on your selected cycle. That means your bill and your check can arrive closer together — helping you stay on top of your payments with less stress.
