The Social Security Administration’s payment schedule is different for each of the United States beneficiary benefits, such as Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or retirement. So depending on the benefit we have we may get check earlier or later.
And it is important to know that we can even get two Supplemental Security Income (SSI) checks if we meet certain requirements. The ideal thing to do in these cases is to always look at all the mandatory requirements to see if we meet them. If we do meet them, we can mark the days on the calendar when the money will be available to us.
Who gets Supplemental Security Income (SSI) on May 1st?
The truth is that unlike Social Security retirement benefits, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments are always sent on the same day for all recipients. So if you have such a benefit, the Social Security Administration will send it to you on the same day as everyone else.
The check will be paid on May 1st, and to get it on the same day it is sent, all you need to do is activate Direct Deposit. Thanks to this collection method, your Social Security benefit money will appear immediately in your checking account. So activate it if you want to get the money as soon as possible.
Second Supplemental Security Income (SSI) check in May 2024
In addition to this May 1st payment, the Social Security Administration will send an extra Supplemental Security Income (SSI) check at the end of the month. This is due to a slight irregularity in the calendar. When the 1st of the month, which is the day Supplemental Security Income is sent, is a holiday or weekend, the payment is advanced.
Thus we find that the June 1st payment will be sent on May 31st, 2024. So in May we will have a double payment of this benefit. Thanks to having Direct Deposit activated, the check will arrive within the same month of May, so we will get two Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits at the same time.
