Saturdays, Sundays and Federal holidays are not counted as business days.

Normally, if the first of the month falls on a weekend or holiday, PBGC will pay benefits on the last business day of the
previous month.
70 percent of all people receiving benefit payments from the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation have their monthly payments deposited into an account at their bank, savings and loan, or credit union. Direct Deposit is a simple, safe and secure way to receive benefits.
