2023-07-15 01:08:00

The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program consists of 12 payments a year, but in July there was no deposit for recipients. What happened?

He provides monthly payments and other benefits to adults and children with disabilities or blindness who have income and resources below specific financial limits. It also makes payments to people age 65 and older without disabilities who have low incomes and financial resources.

WHY WAS THERE NO SSI PAYMENT IN JULY?

According to the 2023 calendar of the Social Security Administration (SSA), payment to beneficiaries is made on the first day of each month. However, when the 1st falls on a weekend or holiday, the payment is made before the start of the month. That happened in July: since July 1 fell on a Saturday, the contribution was made a day before, Friday June 30. So June was double paid and now you will have until August 1st to cash your next check.

Next, these are the amounts of federal payments, which apply from January 2023, according to the page of the .

NOTE: A higher amount may be received if you live in a state that contributes money to SSI. You may also receive less if you or your family have other income. Where and with whom you live also makes a difference in the amount of your SSI payment.
