Every month, the Social Security Administration (SSA) sends money to more than 71 million people who are eligible for Retirement, Survivors, and Disability Insurance (RSDI) benefits or Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments.
In November, however, there will be a small change to the normal payment schedule: SSI recipients will receive an extra payment on November 29th, because the normal payment date of December 1st falls on a weekend.
When this happens, the SSA usually moves these kinds of payments to the day before. In the same way, people who filed for RSDI before May 1997 will get their payments two days early, on November 1, because November 3 is also a Sunday.
SSI payments are only given to certain groups, such as low-income adults over 65, people with disabilities, and some kids who are having a hard time paying their bills.
To be eligible, applicants must meet certain asset and income limits. At this time, the limits are $2,000 for people and $3,000 for couples.
In contrast to other Social Security benefits, SSI recipients get their payments on the same day, no matter when they filed or what date they were born.
To make things clearer, here are the times of payments for the rest of the year:
– Tuesday, October 1
– Friday, November 1
– Friday, November 29 (for SSI payments scheduled for December 1)
Social Security payments eligibility
Millions of Americans have been getting regular benefits from Social Security for a long time to help them pay their bills and save for retirement.
People can get these benefits if they meet certain requirements, which include reaching retirement age, having a work experience, having a certain type of disability, and having paid into Social Security.
The amount of money SSI recipients get each month depends on their income, resources, and the exact category they fall under for the program.
For instance, single people who qualified can get up to $943 a month, and couples can get up to $1,415 a month. People who are Essential Persons (EPs) can also get an extra $472.
The Social Security Administration does offer other programs besides SSI, and each one gives out different amounts of money based on the person’s situation:
– Retirement Benefits: Every month, you will get about $1,900. The amount could be as much as $2,710 for people who start getting benefits at age 62.
People who wait until they are 67 years old can get up to $3,822. If a person waits until age 70 to retire, their monthly payments can go up to $4,873.
– Benefits for Survivors: Survivors get an average of $1,505 a month. But people may be able to get up to $1,773, and people with two children who depend on them may be able to get up to $3,653.
– Disability benefits: the normal amount of money given for disability is $1,537. The blind, on the other hand, can get up to $2,590 for each month. The most you can get each month under the disability group is $3,822.
– There are different monthly payment amounts: available through the RSDI program, which gives money to retirees, widows, and disabled people.
These amounts range from $1,505 to $4,873, based on things like the person’s age when they retired, their work history, and how much they paid into Social Security over the course of their career.
