Why am I getting two SSI payments in May?
Typically, the Social Security Administration disburses SSI checks on the first of each month. However, there are a couple of exceptions to the payment schedule.
1. If the first of the month is on a holiday.
2. If the first of the month is on a weekend.
Since June 1 is on a Saturday, June payments are going out a day early. That means your June payment will arrive on Friday, May 31, which also means you won’t receive an additional payment in June.
If I receive other Social Security benefits, will I get those early, too?
No. If you receive other Social Security benefits, you’ll still get those on the normally scheduled day since those payments fall on Wednesdays. Here’s when May payments will arrive.
May 3: Social Security payments for people who have received Social Security since before May 1997.
May 8: Social Security payments for those with birthdays falling between the first and 10th of any given month.
May 15: Social Security payments for folks with birthdays falling between the 11th and 20th of any given month.
May 22: Social Security payments for people with birthdays falling between the 21st and 31st of any given month.
