SSI Checks Coming SOON! Here’s the Exact Deposit Date!

If you are a beneficiary of Supplemental Security Income (SSI), you will be happy to know that the next payment will be received on January 31, 2025. Although, usually SSI payment comes on the first date of every month, but this time it will be released a day earlier due to Saturday on February 1.

This means that all eligible persons receiving SSI will get the February payment 24 hours in advance. This will be beneficial for those who depend on SSI to meet their monthly needs.

Increase in the amount of SSI payment in 2025

Under the Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA), the SSI payment has increased by 2.5% in 2025. This means that the payment received on January 31 will come with an increased amount.

The maximum amount of SSI will now be:
Individual beneficiary – $967
Spouse (both eligible) – $1,450
SSI dependent “significant person” – $484

The maximum amount couples can receive is $35 higher than last year. Although this increase is the smallest in the last 10 years, it is still a positive change for low-income citizens.

Eligibility conditions for receiving SSI payments

If you receive SSI payments, whether or not it will continue forever depends on your financial and personal situation. This federal program provides financial assistance to Americans who have low incomes and limited resources.

If you receive a large sum of money for some reason (such as winning the lottery, selling property, etc.), your SSI eligibility may end.

Only three types of US citizens will receive SSI payments on January 31, 2025:

Adults or children with a qualifying disability.
Adults or children who are blind.
Seniors 65 years of age or older.

If you are already receiving Social Security Retirement or SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance) benefits, you may still be eligible for SSI payments. But for this, the conditions of low income and limited resources have to be met.

Conclusion

If you are receiving SSI, your next payment will come on January 31, 2025. This payment will come 1 day earlier than usual, because due to Saturday on February 1, SSA has decided to issue it earlier.

With the 2025 COLA increase, SSI payments will be 2.5% higher this time. Although this increase is the lowest in the last 10 years, it will still prove beneficial for SSI beneficiaries.
