Social Security beneficiaries can expect several payments in the final months of 2024. An additional payment in November is planned for some recipients. Payments are sent based on the recipient’s date of birth:
- 1st–10th: Payments on the second Wednesday.
- 11th–20th: Payments on the third Wednesday.
- 21st–31st: Payments on the fourth Wednesday.
For those who applied for benefits before May 1, 1997, payments are issued on the third day of each month. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments are typically made on the first day of the month, but if this date falls on a weekend or federal holiday, payments are sent on the previous business day.
Who Qualifies for Double SSI Payments in November?
Some SSI beneficiaries will receive two payments in November, thanks to scheduling adjustments. To qualify, recipients must meet these eligibility requirements:
- Age or Disability: Must be 65 or older, have a qualifying disability, or be legally blind.
- Income Limits: Monthly income must be less than $1,971.
- Asset Limits: Total assets must not exceed $2,000, excluding primary homes and vehicles.
SSI is designed to assist those with limited income and resources, ensuring help reaches the most vulnerable populations.
