If you are expecting to get the new Disability benefit payment by May 2024 you should know that the check will have an increase over the previous year. So all United States beneficiaries with a Disability payment will enjoy a little more money in May 2024 than in May 2023.
However, it is true that the day of collection of the Social Security Disability check in May 2023 will depend on several factors. Some citizens will be able to collect the benefit in the first week, while others will have to wait a few more days to have the retirement money available.
Maximum amount of Social Security Disability Insurance in May 2024
The maximum amount for this type of retiree reaches $3,822 in May 2024. This does not imply that all citizens with a Disability benefit can have this amount of money. This is the maximum check that Social Security sends out, but it is customary to have a smaller check.
So if we take this into account, we should simply know that our Social Security payment in May 2024 will be 3.2% higher than it was in 2023. Therefore, if you were collecting $1,000 in the previous year, in this year you will be collecting $1,032 per month. This change was made earlier this year.
When do the Disability payments arrive in May 2024?
Disability checks from the Social Security Administration, as well as all other retirement benefits, will arrive on the 3rd, 8th, 15th, and 22nd of the month. Getting paid on one of these days depends on your eligibility.
To collect the payment on the 3rd day of May 2024, you must have received your retirement benefit prior to May 1997. That requirement alone will be necessary to be eligible to get this Social Security benefit in May.
However, if our Social Security Disability payment is from May 1997 or later, the check may arrive on the other three days of the collection, depending on the birthday. Thus, retirees born between the 1st and 10th of the month will collect on May 8th.
Beneficiaries with a birthday between the 11th and 20th of any month will have access to the check on the 15th of May. Finally, Disability or other Social Security check beneficiaries with birthdays between the 21st and 31st will be able to have money on the 22nd day of this month in May 2024.
