Get Ready for Your SSI Payment: What You Need to Know

There is just under a week until Supplemental Security Income beneficiaries receive the first of two June payments worth $914 each for individual filers.

Exciting news for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) beneficiaries! The first of two June payments is on its way, with individual filers receiving 4 each. Here’s what you need to know:

Payment Dates

The first payment, which will be sent out on Thursday, June 1, is the first of two checks that will arrive in June from the Social Security Administration. The second round will be sent on June 30, because July 1 will be on a Saturday.

Mark your calendars! The first payment will be sent out on June 1, with the second payment following on June 30. Keep in mind that payment dates may vary depending on your location and other factors.

Payment Amounts

There is some variation in the amount of money each group receives, with individual filers, joint filers, and essential persons each receiving different amounts. Individual filers each receive $914 every month, eligible couples receive ,371, and essential persons, who live with people receiving SSI payments and provide them with necessary care, get a monthly payment of $458.

Payment amounts vary depending on your filing status and other factors. Individual filers will receive $914 per month, while eligible couples will receive $1,371. Essential persons who provide care for SSI beneficiaries will receive $458 per month.

Qualifying for SSI

SSI payments are separate from regular Social Security benefits that go to retirees. SSI provides monthly payments to adults and children with blindness or another disability and limited income. To qualify for SSI, a person has to be over 65, be totally or partially blind, or have a “physical or mental condition(s) that very seriously limits their daily activities for a period of 12 months or more or may be expected to result in death.”

It’s important to note that SSI payments are separate from regular Social Security benefits. To qualify for SSI, you must have a disability or blindness and limited income. You must also be over 65 or have a physical or mental condition that seriously limits your daily activities.

Payment Schedule

Although the payments are often disbursed on the first of each month, there are exceptions for when the first falls on a weekend or a holiday. In those cases, the SSA sends its monthly SSI checks on the last business day before the month begins.

While payments are typically disbursed on the first of each month, there may be exceptions for weekends and holidays. In those cases, payments will be sent on the last business day before the month begins.

Double Payments

The double payments mean beneficiaries still receive 12 checks per year, even though some months receive two checks and some receive none. There are four months total in which two payments will be delivered in the same month this year: March, June, September, and December. This is because the first of the month falls on a weekend or holiday in April, July, and October. Jan. 1 is always a holiday.

Beneficiaries will receive double payments in certain months, ensuring that they receive 12 checks per year. This year, double payments will be delivered in March, June, September, and December. This is due to weekends and holidays falling on the first of the month in other months.
