The first of next July’s Social Security payments will go to a specific group of Americans who will have a check for up to $943 in their checking account as soon as the month begins. Eligible beneficiaries in the United States will have this payment directly available to them with just a couple of requirements.
However, it is true that those who do not have the benefit accepted in advance will not be able to get this extra money. The good thing about this benefit is that it is compatible with other Social Security payments and also with other benefit payments such as SNAP Food Stamps. Therefore, we could get several different checks with different amounts and thus have a more stable economy each month.
How do I get my 1st July Social Security payment?
The truth is that the main requirement to be able to collect the check of up to $943 on July 1st, 2024 is to have Supplemental Security Income accepted. This benefit is an extra check that the Social Security Administration gives to the neediest citizens.
Therefore, you simply must have applied for SSI check and have it accepted in advance. You will then be able to enjoy this extra payment from Social Security to use the money for what you really need.
While it is true that the payment can reach $943 nothing indicates that all Americans get such a large benefit. The amount of the SSI payment depends on the applicant’s income. So the less usual income we have, the larger the SSI check we will get.
Social Security SSI Eligibility Requirements
As we discussed earlier, to get an SSI payment from Social Security we will need to meet several requirements. There are two in total, so if we meet them we will be able to get this benefit not only in July, but every month.
The first requirement is that you must be 65 years of age or older. It is also possible to meet this requirement if we have a disability. It is not necessary to meet both requirements in this section, but one of them is more than enough.
The second requirement for this extra payment is to have low monthly income, as well as low resources. Americans with low income can apply for this check if they are over 65 years old or have a disability.
