No SSI payment in June? The simple reason has to do with the calendar
- Replies 0
SSI payments payments usually arrive on the first of the month, like clockwork.
But when the first falls on a weekend or federal holiday, the Social Security Administration (SSA) sends your payment early—on the last business day before the 1st.
If you noticed two deposits in May (one on the 1st and another on the 30th), you didn’t get bonus money.
That second deposit was just your June payment—delivered ahead of time to avoid delays.
Here’s what your SSI payment schedule looks like for the rest of the year:
If you receive a low monthly benefit from Social Security, you might still qualify for SSI, but your SSI will be offset by the amount you get from other programs.
Programs like food stamps usually don’t impact SSI, but some housing subsidies or cash assistance can.
New income (like a job or inheritance) must be reported. It can affect your eligibility or monthly amount.
Always report any changes in income, living situation, or benefits to the SSA to avoid overpayments or disruptions.
