The SSI payments for March will be delivered in late February. According to the Social Security Administration’s payment schedule, the normal payday for Supplemental Security Income had to be changed.
Therefore, Saturday, March 1 will not be the payday, and SSI checks and direct deposits will be issued on February 28, 2025. Bear in mind that this is because the Administration can never pay recipients on the weekend or on Federal holidays.
Who will receive $714 from SSI?
For your information, this will be the average payment for all Supplemental Security Income beneficiaries. Therefore, it is just an idea of what an eligible recipient may get on the February 28 payment.
The maximum amount an SSI recipient can get from the Federal Government is $967 (individuals). If you are an eligible married couple, it means you both qualify, you can get up to $1,450.
An essential person on SSI can receive up to $484. Those who get a reduction may receive much lower payment amounts. Of course, it will depend on whether you receive other benefits or not.
Will there be an SSI payment in March?
Since the March 1 SSI payment has been scheduled for February 28, there are no other paydays scheduled next month. As a matter of fact, Social Security‘s payment schedule states that after the payday on the 28th, the next payday will be on April 1, 2025.
There is an interesting coincidence in May. The Supplemental Security Income payment will be delivered on May 1, but there will be another payday on May 30, 2025.
As you may have guessed, the Social Security Administration has scheduled the Supplemental Security payment for June two days ahead of schedule. If you know someone who has limited resources and a low income, you can help them file for this benefit. Make sure they have a disability, are blind or are at least 65 years old.
