SSDI payments are over in July, so it is time to prepare for the upcoming payments in the United States. August will bring 4 Disability Insurance payments, but some disability recipients may also qualify for Supplemental Security Income.
Thus, if you are on SSI and Social Security Disability Insurance, your next SSDI payment will be due on August 2. This direct deposit will not be sent on the 3rd because Social Security only sends money on business days. So, no checks on holidays or weekends.
2 paydays for eligible SSDI recipients from August 1-14
If you are not on SSI, you may also receive the Disability Insurance payment on August 2, as long as you began getting SSDI before May 1997. However, the second payday will not be until August 14.
In fact, it will be 4 days later than in July, which was on July 10. The 2nd Disability Insurance payment will be coming on Aug. 14 for those who are not on Supplemental Security Income, did not get Social Security before May 1997, and were born from the 1-10.
Therefore, if your birth date is after the 10th, you will have to wait one more week or 2 to receive your direct deposit or check. The amount of your payment on August 2 or 14 will depend on several factors.
SSDI payment amount on August 2 & 14
As a matter of fact, the average payment for Disability Insurance recipients will be $1,537 for both payment dates. Some workers with a disability may have a larger benefit amount because they were able to work for many years and had a well-paid job.
Those who earned the taxable maximum (contribution and benefit base) for 35 years in jobs covered by SSA can get up to $3,822. If you happen to receive a smaller check apply for SSI and SNAP benefits.
Bear in mind that SSI is a Supplement to your monthly SSDI check. Actually, if you are on SSI, you will get the August payment on the 1st and the one for September on August 30. So, 2 paydays in one month.
