However, if you have a qualifying <strong>disability<\/strong>, you can collect <strong>Supplemental Security Income<\/strong> payments even if you are not 65 years old yet. Of course, you must also meet the income requirements just like seniors.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from seniors aged 65 and people with disabilities, Americans who are blind may also qualify for <strong>SSI benefits<\/strong>. So, there are three completely different groups of recipients who can collect these monthly <strong>payments<\/strong>. What is more, the <strong>Supplemental Security Income<\/strong> program can be for both eligible adults and children.<\/p>\n<h2>When will the Federal Government issue SSI payments?<\/h2>\n<p>In general, the Supplemental Security Income <strong>payments<\/strong> are due on the first day of the month. Nevertheless, it is not always possible to do so because it may fall on a Federal holiday or on the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>In these cases, the <strong>Social Security Administration<\/strong> reschedules the payment date and the <strong>direct deposits<\/strong> and checks will be deposited on the previous business day.<\/p>\n<p>This is what is going to happen on June 1. June 1 falls on the weekend, so the Agency has decided to send SSI payments on the previous Friday. Thus, the new payday will be May 30, 2025.<\/p>\n<h2>Seniors and Disability recipients&#8217; SSI amounts<\/h2>\n<p>The 2025 maximum amounts for this <strong>Federal<\/strong> program are the same for all recipients. However, not all of them qualify because they may also be collecting <strong>Social Security Disability Insurance<\/strong> or <strong>retirement<\/strong> benefits.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, an eligible recipient (seniors aged 65, people with disabilities or blind people) can collect up to $967. This is the new maximum amount after the 2025 COLA increase that took effect in January.<\/p>\n<p>On average, SSI recipients get <strong>$717<\/strong> as of April 2025. Other possible average amounts are available, but they are divided by age. For example, under-18s can receive $844 on average. Seniors 65+ can collect <strong>$592<\/strong> on average and those aged 18-64 about <strong>$764<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>If you are a<strong> Social Security<\/strong> recipient and your monthly <strong>payment<\/strong> is too low, you may want to check your eligibility for <strong>Supplemental Security Income<\/strong>. This could be a great way to get extra money every month if you find it difficult to buy or pay for the necessary things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seniors can collect SSI payments when they are at least 65 years old, have low incomes, and limited resources.
