Millions of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) beneficiaries are set to receive their February 2025 payments soon, with the next scheduled deposit happening on Wednesday, February 26. If you were born on specific dates, you could be eligible for this round of payments, which include the 2.5% Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for this year.
Ensuring that your direct deposit information is up to date is crucial to avoiding payment delays. Additionally, beneficiaries should be aware of their exact payment amounts, as the Cost of Living Adjustment increase has slightly boosted SSDI checks this year. If you’re wondering whether you’re included in the February 26 batch, here’s everything you need to know.
Who Will Receive SSDI Payments on February 26?
The Social Security Administration (SSA) distributes payments based on beneficiaries’ birth dates. For February 2025, the SSDI payment schedule is as follows:
- Wednesday, February 12: Beneficiaries born between the 1st and 10th of any month.
- Wednesday, February 19: Beneficiaries born between the 11th and 20th of any month.
- Wednesday, February 26: Beneficiaries born between the 21st and 31st of any month.
If your birth date falls between the 21st and 31st, you can expect to receive your SSDI check on February 26. This payment will include the 2.5% COLA increase, meaning your deposit will be slightly higher than last year’s amounts.
