New SSDI payments for eligible Social Security recipients are about to arrive in the United States. These new checks and direct deposits will only be for those who have filed and got approval.
Of course, remaining eligible is essential, and reporting any health improvements is mandatory. Otherwise, it may result in undesirable and unpleasant overpayments. None of these SSDI payments include the 2025 COLA, but the new figure will be announced on October 10, 2024.
Next new SSDI payment from October 1-8
The Social Security Administration has announced that some Disability Insurance recipients will receive money on October 3, 2024. However, you can only receive any of these payments on the third if:
- you started collecting benefits before May 1997
- or if you are receiving Social Security and Supplemental Security Income
- did not break SSA rules
The next SSDI payment on October 3 can provide recipients with an average payment worth $1,539. If you were a high earner, you may receive a lot more. Low earners can receive lower-than-average payments though. They may even qualify for Supplemental Security Income. For your information, SSI will be issued on October 1, 2024.
SSDI payments from October 9-26
After the Social Security Disability Insurance payment on October 3, there will be 3 more paydays. These are commonly known as the Wednesday checks. To get the first, second, or third round you must meet the birth date requirement.
For example, SSDI will be delivered on October 9 if you were born from the first to the tenth of any month. If you were born after that date, and you are on SSDI, your benefits could come on October 16 or 23.
- Disability Insurance on October 16: birthday from 11-20
- Disability Insurance on October 23: birthday from 21-31
As far as maximum amounts are concerned, the Disability Insurance payment can provide recipients with a check worth $3,822. So, it is a large payment but very few can achieve it because a disability can prevent them from achieving it since you need to work for 35 years in jobs covered by SSA while you earned the taxable maximum.
