Social Security update: $914 payment coming in 10 days.
Supplemental Security Income Recipients to Receive Up to $914 in 10 Days
Exciting news for individuals receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI)! In just 10 days, you will see your next monthly benefits payment, which could be as much as $914.
This upcoming payment on September 1st is the first of two payments you will receive this month. This unique occurrence happens multiple times a year, and it’s all due to a scheduling quirk.
Why the Double Payment?
Normally, SSI payments are delivered to beneficiaries on the first day of the month. However, when the first day falls on a weekend or a holiday, the Social Security Administration ensures that recipients receive their checks on time by issuing the payment on the business day prior.
As a result, you will receive two checks in the same calendar month several times a year. But don’t worry, you will still receive a total of 12 checks per year, one for each month.
This year, you can expect two payments in March, June, September, and December. This is because the first of the month falls on a weekend in April, July, October, and January 2024.
So, mark your calendars! The September payment will be issued to you on September 1st. As for the October payment, it will be sent out a bit earlier on September 29th since October 1st falls on a Sunday.
Now, let’s talk about the payment amounts. The rate for individuals is $914 per month, while eligible couples can expect a monthly payment of $1,371. If you are an essential person, meaning you live with someone receiving SSI and provide them with necessary care, your monthly payment rate is $458.
It’s worth noting that SSI payments have been around since January 1974, with payment rates increasing to account for cost of living adjustments since 1975.
