Millions of Americans rely on Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) to supplement their income. These individuals must have a recognized disability. In the United States, the SSDI program is administered by the Social Security Administration, which has two main eligibility criteria:
- You must have worked in jobs covered by Social Security and have accumulated a sufficient number of work credits.
- You must have a medical condition that meets the SSA’s definition of disability.
If you meet these two requirements, you should be able to set up an interview and, if all goes well, you will be added to the program and receive a monthly check.
What is the SSDI payment schedule for November 2023?
If you are a beneficiary of the SSDI program, you will want to know what the payment schedule is. Although benefits are usually paid on about the same date each month, sometimes it can vary.
If you have been receiving SSDI payments since before May 1997, you will be paid on the 3rd of each month, so November 3, 2023.
If, like most, you joined the program after May 1997, the date your SSDI benefits are paid depends on your date of birth. Here’s how it works:
- If your birthday is between the 1st and 10th of the month, you will be paid on Wednesday, November 8.
- If your birthday is between the 11th and 20th of the month, you will be paid on Wednesday, November 15.
- If your birthday is between the 21st and 31st of the month, you will be paid on Wednesday, November 22nd.
Who receives SSDI payments this week?
In terms of next week, the only people who will receive SSDI benefits in the next seven days are those who are due to be paid on Friday, November 3, which are those whose eligibility dates back to before May 1997.
