Social Security sent the last payment on November 8 for SSDI recipients. However, this payment was for those whose birthday is from the first to the tenth of the month.
As a matter of fact, there are two more SSDI payments in November. These checks could be worth up to $3627. The next group of Social Security Disability Insurance beneficiaries to receive a payment will be those who did not get benefits before May 1997 and do not have their birthdays early in the month.
If your birthday is from the 11th to the 20th of the month, then your SSDI payment will be due on November 15, 2023. Direct deposits are always the fastest and safest option.
When will SSDI beneficiaries receive their last November payment?
The last group of Social Security Disability Insurance recipients to get a payment will be those whose birth date is from the 21st to the 31st. They will be able to receive their monthly check on November 22.
As for the amounts of November 15 and November 22 this disability benefits payments it will depend on several factors. For example, the later you filed for benefits the better, age, the number of years you worked, and earnings history are key.
That is why SSA can only provide statistics with average payments. As of September 2023, the average Social Security Disability Insurance check was $1,846. So, that means checks are not that large in general.
For example, if you compare it with average retirement benefits, the amounts are not the same. Retirees get about $1,841. Even if the largest check is $3,627 for SSDI, few can achieve it.
How can I get $3,627 on SSDI disability benefits?
In order to qualify for $3,627 you must meet all the strict requirements Social Security has set. First of all, you need to take into account that you cannot really choose when to file for disability benefits.
To qualify for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or Supplemental Security Income (SSI), you must meet @SocialSecurity’s definition of disability.

Therefore, it is very unpredictable and you never know when a disability may appear in your life. Hopefully, as late as possible if anyone has to face one. But there are a few things you need to know to get more money from Social Security retirement or SSDI.
Try to promote and get well-paid jobs. Only high earners can be eligible for such large payments worth $3,627 per month. Working for at least 35 years would be ideal so that Social Security does not reduce your payments.
Bear in mind that SSA calculates the amount of your benefits using the top 35 years with the highest earnings. Then, you would have to file for Social Security very late, and have earned the taxable maximum for 35 years. As you can see, it is almost impossible to get $3,627 for SSDI.
