The Social Security Administration has already sent two different retirement checks to United States Disability beneficiaries. They have also sent another check for the extra Supplemental Security Income payment in May.
If you have not received either of these payments, you are among those who will be getting your benefit in the near future. There are still two retirement checks that the Social Security Administration will send to retirees in the United States, as well as the extra payment for Disability retirees at the end of the month.
New Disability payment in May in a few days
The new Social Security Disability benefit payment will arrive in just a few days. To be exact, this new payment will appear in the checking account of the one who meets three requirements on May 15th. On this day, group 3 retirees will be able to enjoy their check.
Beneficiaries of this Disability benefit will have access to a payment of up to $3,822 per month. This check will be available only to beneficiaries who:
- Have had a check since May 1997 or later.
- Have a birthday between the 1st and 10th of any month.
Meeting these two requirements is enough if we want to collect the payment on May 15th. But in addition to these requirements we must have Direct Deposit activated. This collection method helps us to get the Disability benefit payment as soon as possible. So if we activate it, we will receive the money on May 15th, 2024.
Extra payment for Disability beneficiaries in May 2024
At the end of May 2024, Disability beneficiaries could get an extra payment. This extra payment is Supplemental Security Income and to get it we must have the benefit accepted in advance.
Supplemental Security Income payments have a maximum check of $943 in 2024. So if we have this benefit accepted, we could get this extra payment with that maximum amount on the 31st of May.
This irregularity in the calendar is due to the fact that June 1st is a weekend. When the 1st of the month is a weekend or holiday, the Social Security Administration pays the SSI check on the immediately preceding business day. So citizens with a Disability who also have SSI accepted will be able to enjoy two of these payments in this month.
