The U.S. Government funds the Federal SSI payments. Besides, the Social Security Administration’s funds provide the necessary money for retirees and disability insurance recipients. So, whether you are receiving SSI, SSDI, or retirement benefit payments, you may still qualify for a new monthly payment. Unless you received an SSDI or retirement check or direct deposit in November, you qualify for a payment if you are on benefits.
For example, the SSI (Supplemental Security Income) benefit payment for December 1, 2024, will be issued on November 29, 2024. Therefore, there will be 2 paydays for these recipients during this month. Even if the first payday was for November and the other one for December.
Social Security Disability Insurance and retirement benefits payment dates
The Administration will issue a new monthly payment on November 20, 2024. Hence, many eligible recipients will soon be enjoying a new check or direct deposit as long as you:
- are not receiving SSI payments
- and did not start collecting payments before May 1997
- meets the birthday requirement
- born from 11-20 of any month
- have filed and gotten approval
- have not broken SSA’s rules
To get money from Social Security on November 27, you must meet the same requirements but you must have been born from 21-31 instead.
Social Security payment amounts in November
As a matter of fact, the smallest checks in November will be for SSI recipients. The Supplemental Security Income program issues monthly checks or direct deposits of about $697 on average.
