I am fairly new to investing also. Most common stocks that pay dividends pay them once a quarter. Not all CS do pay dividends, however, and you need to know whether or not they do before you buy any shares. Also, each company runs on its own "fiscal year" which may or may not coincide with the calendar year. So just because it's March 30, does not mean it is the end of the first quarter for a company in which you hold shares. For example, I just sold some shares of Casey (CASY) and their fiscal year is offset 6 months from the calendar year.
Many other types of investments, such as insurance annuities and money market funds pay out dividends on a monthy basis. Reinvesting these dividends will help your money grow much faster than taking a cash payout.
I suggest you pick up a copy of Rule #1 by Phil Town. He is recommended by Jim Cramer, and his writing style is much more structured and easy to understand.
I also like to watch Fast Money and the weekend financial shows.
Good Luck and have fun investing. |

Normally one get dividends paid twice in a financial year. The first is called interim and the second final.
I would recommend you to check the website below where you can find more details on Shares and Stock trading and how to select best shares.
Hope it helps,

It all depends upon what company's stock you own and what kind of stock you own [e.g. preferred or common stock]. Every corporation has its own dividend policies. Dividends are declared by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Dividends can be paid in ways other than money such as tangible personal property. Many companies such as General Electric pay dividends on a very regular basis, however, technically a Dividend should not paid unless the corporation meets the legal requirements of the state it is incorporated. This can get a little complicated but should be reviewed if you are interested by goggling state requirements for paying dividends. Good luck |

You get a dividend payment whenever the company declares a dividend. They are not required to declare dividends and many never do so.
Companies that regularly declare dividends normally declare them quarterly.
Read the company's prospectus to see what their plans are on declaring dividends but keep in mind that a history of good dividend payments is no guarantee of future dividend payments any more than past performance of the stock's price is any indicator of future performance. |

It depends on the investment. You can do a search online to find the dividend payment date, by checking the prospectus of the security, for instance. If it's a bank dividend, those are usually paid at end of month or maturity of the CD, but check with your bank to confirm. |

It is very company specific.. there are some compannies who pays dividend every year while there are few who does not pay even once in five year |

some stocks never pay out dividents, others do it annually or semi-annually.
The wont do it too often because of the adminstrative expense involved in distributiing dividends.
There is no theoretical limit. It could be hourly, it would be ever 10 years. And fo yource their are special divdidents that are one time events.
Amounts can vary as well, but companies try to keep it consistant. |

Normally, it would be once a year. If the co. has done exceptionally well, maybe twice or thrice. |
