October 30 Move Your Cash? The Real October Deadlines for Seniors Over 60

Is there an October 30 deadline to move your cash? No. There is no federal rule, Social Security payment, or banking regulation tied to that date. But October does bring real deadlines for people on Social Security and Medicare, and missing them can cost you money for a full year. In this video, Steve from Steve Senior Benefits explains what really happens in October: the new federal fiscal year and what a government funding lapse does and does not affect, the annual Social Security COLA announcement and how to calculate your own increase, the Medicare Part B premium and the hold-harmless protection, and Medicare Open Enrollment, which runs October 15 through December 7. You'll also learn how to use Medicare Plan Finder, how to request a Medicare premium recalculation with Form SSA-44, and why FDIC insurance does not depend on any October date. You'll get a step-by-step checklist for this month, a warning about Medicare scam calls that use urgency, and how to verify any deadline through official sources like ssa.gov, medicare.gov, and your bank. This video is general education only and is not financial, legal, or tax advice. Benefit amounts, premiums, and program rules change each year. Always confirm your situation with ssa.gov, medicare.gov, your bank, or a free SHIP counselor.
