The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payment schedule calls for payments to be made on the first day of each month, however, the deposit date is sometimes brought forward if the 1st falls on a weekend or holiday.
In June, SSI recipients will receive their monthly payment early: the deposit will be made on Friday, May 30, as June 1 falls on a Sunday. This is common practice in the SSI calendar, which adjusts its dates when the first day of the month falls on a weekend or holiday.
The SSI program is aimed at people with limited resources and little or no work history, who cannot perform professionally due to a medical condition. The Social Security istration (SSA) calculates the benefit amount based on average earnings over the working life before the person became disabled, without considering the severity of their condition.
In 2025, the maximum monthly payment is $967 for an individual and $1,450 for a couple. However, the final amount may vary according to factors such as additional income or the applicant's living conditions.
Currently, about 7.4 million Americans receive SSI benefits. Of these, about one-third also collect a Social Security benefit. In these cases, when the beneficiary started receiving payments before May 1997 or if they receive both SSI and Social Security, the deposits are made separately: the SSI deposit on the 1st and the Social Security deposit on the 3rd of each month.
For those who ed the program after that date, the regular payment schedule applies. If payment does not arrive on the expected date, it is recommended to wait up to three business days before ing the SSA.
