SSDI or Social Security Disability Insurance will have 4 different paydays in June. If you are on Supplemental Security Income and Disability Insurance simultaneously, June 3 will be your next payday.
Therefore, the first SSDI will be on time. SSI will arrive on May 31 though, just one day ahead of schedule. Those on Disability Insurance benefits before May 1997 will share the same payment date, June 3.
Which will be the next SSDI change in date?
Usually, all the Social Security Disability Insurance payments arrive on the second, third, and fourth Wednesday in June. However, this year’s SSDI payments will have a change.
Although there will be a Disability Insurance payment on the second Wednesday, June 12, there will be no disability benefit check or direct deposit on June 19, 2024.
Do not worry because this is good news, the SSDI payment due on the third Wednesday will be due on June 18 instead. Hence, you will be able to spend your money one day in advance.
Will SSDI amounts be the same in June?
In general, all payment amounts will remain the same. Unless you lose eligibility because you have overcome your disability or you have worked and had earnings over the threshold, there should be no changes in amounts.
For example, if you qualify for an average payment, your check or direct deposit will be about $1,537. As of April 2024, that is the average SSDI payment SSA announced. Only high earners can opt for the largest Disability Insurance benefits in the United States.
In fact, this large payment can be up to $3,822. If your disability benefit is not enough and is much lower than average, it is high time you applied for SSI. It will help you make ends meet. Report any changes in health once you are on Disability Insurance. Otherwise, you may have to deal with overpayments.
How do beneficiaries who have been on Disability Insurance benefits before May 1997 relate to the payment date change
People who applied for Social Security before May 1, 1997 get payments on the 3rd of each month, regardless of their birthdate. This rule also applies to those on Disability Insurance before May 1997. Therefore, their payment dates remain unaffected. Other search results explain more about Disability Insurance but don’t add extra information about this specific rule.
