Overview
- SSI recipients will receive two deposits in October—on Oct. 1 and Oct. 31—with no SSI payment issued in November.
- The Social Security Administration confirmed the Oct. 31 disbursement covers November benefits because Nov. 1 falls on a Saturday.
- Eligibility and 2025 maximums remain unchanged: up to $967 for individuals, $1,450 for couples, and $484 for essential caregivers.
- Most payments are now delivered electronically after the phaseout of paper checks, with schedules published on the SSA’s calendar.
- Other Social Security benefits follow the November schedule of Nov. 3, 12, 19, and 26, and payments are not expected to be disrupted by a government shutdown due to mandatory funding.
