Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments from Social Security in the United States follow an established schedule so that beneficiaries can know on what day they will get each check. However, there are times when we encounter irregularities in these payments.
When that happens, the payment changes day completely, but it is easy to keep track of it. The important thing in these cases is to check the Social Security Administration’s official payment schedule, as the timing of the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) check can be tricky sometimes.
Therefore, we have found that retirees who are going to collect the new Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payment have not received one for more than a month. Since September 29th, the Social Security Administration has not been paying checks for this benefit. Undoubtedly, for some Americans, this number of days is too long.
Regardless of the days on which the Social Security Administration sends out payments, we should keep in mind that at the end of each year we will always get 12 payments if we have Supplemental Security Income accepted. So you don’t have to worry too much unless you really need the money urgently.
WHO CAN GET THE NEW SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME (SSI) PAYMENT?
Americans who have already had their Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payment accepted will be able to get the new check in just a few hours. This payment is not for all Americans, but it is for all Americans who have the benefit accepted.
Unlike retirement payments, there are no extra requirements to get Supplemental Security Income payments. There are no groups of different recipients of this benefit. The Social Security Administration sends all checks at the same time.
So the $914 payment, which has the 2023 8.7% COLA included, will arrive on the 1st for all Americans who have Direct Deposit. Citizens who have not activated this collection method will be able to get the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) money in the next 3 days upon remittance.
IS SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME COMPATIBLE WITH THE SOCIAL SECURITY RETIREMENT CHECK?
Millions of United States citizens wonder if it is possible to combine Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments with retirement benefits. And the truth is, yes, they are totally compatible. Not only are these two checks compatible, but it is common to receive both at the same time.
Even so, remember that each payment has a mailing day. Therefore, we will get the Supplemental Security Income payment on November 1st and the rest of the payments will arrive depending on several factors.
November 3rd will be the payment day for retirees with a pre-1997 benefit. Retirees with a check after that time will be paid on up to 3 different days.
Those born between the 1st and 10th will collect Social Security on November 8th. The 15th of November is for post-1997 retirees with birthdays between the 11th and 20th of the month. Finally, the payment on November 22nd will be for those with birthdays between the 21st and 31st of the month.
