The U.S. Government and the Social Security Administration send a new Supplemental Security Income (SSI) check to Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients every month. Therefore, if you are eligible to get this check, you can have it in your checking account in just a few days.
Each new month that begins we can get this benefit if it is accepted. In addition, in this coming month of October 2024 we will have the possibility of getting a higher Supplemental Security Income (SSI) check than in the month of October 2023. This benefit increase is thanks to the COLA, so it’s good news to be able to count on a little extra money.
Who gets Supplemental Security Income (SSI) in 6 days?
Only a specific group of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients can get SSI within 6 days. This group is the one that has the benefit accepted and has also activated Direct Deposit as a collection method. This collection method is immediate and effective, so the moment the Social Security Administration sends the money, the beneficiary has it in his or her checking account.
Remember that the amount of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) depends on several factors but it does not affect whether we get the payment earlier or later. The Social Security Administration will send this new payment on October 1st, so we will not have to wait much longer to get the money in our pockets.
What are the requirements for Supplemental Security Income (SSI)?
Many United States citizens are not aware that they can claim this monthly benefit. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments are more common than they may seem, and in order to get this check each month, there are only two requirements.
The requirements to get the monthly Supplemental Security Income are:
- Be 65 years of age or older or have a disability.
- Have low resources, in addition to low monthly income.
These two requirements are mandatory, but it is true that many Americans who have not applied for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) meet them. Although the payment may be as high as $943 at present, not all citizens get the same amount. To qualify for a large check, it is necessary to have a low monthly income.
