SSDI payments are not just for workers who have filed for Social Security. As a matter of fact, their closest family members could be entitled to monthly payments too. Therefore, if you are a spouse or you have an eligible child, the 2025 January payments are still on schedule in the United States.
January 15 is the second round of Wednesday payments in January for SSDI recipients. To get money from Social Security on this date, you must have gotten approval after April 30, 1997, and your birth date must fall from 11-20. Being on SSI while on Disability insurance makes you ineligible for this payday.
Date for the last SSDI in January 2025
The last Disability Insurance payday this month will be on January 22. To qualify for the January 22 disability payment, you must meet similar conditions to the previous payment on Jan. 15.
However, the main difference has to do with the day you were born. Those SSDI recipients born from the 21st to the 31st will receive Social Security on January 22, 2025.
If you are receiving SSI and SSDI, the next payment date will be February 3. Or if you got disability benefits before May 1997, Jan. 22 will also be your next payday. If born from the 1st to the 10th, your disability benefit will be in your bank account on February 12, 2025.

Who will receive $431 or $508 from SSDI in January?
As a matter of fact, $508 is the average payment for a spouse receiving Disability Insurance on the worker’s record. So, if you are a spouse and you qualify for Disability Insurance, this is the average amount.
Children who are receiving SSDI payments on their parent’s record can get about $431 on average. If you are about to file for Social Security, do not forget to check if your spouse or children qualify for Social Security too.
The spouse and children’s SSDI payments can be a great supplement if you have a shoestring budget. Remember that Disability Insurance recipients get average payments worth $1,580 after the 2025 COLA increase.
