November Social Security Benefits: Double Payments for SSI Recipients
Understanding the November Payments for SSI
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients will receive two payments in November due to the normal payment date for December's benefits falling on a weekend. SSI benefits are crucial for individuals who are 65 years old with low or no income or those younger than 65 with a physical or mental disability.
Payment Schedule for SSI Recipients
- November Payment: Friday, November 1
- December Payment: Friday, November 29
This adjustment is necessary as December 1 falls on a Sunday, and Social Security payments are not made on weekends or federal holidays. Around 7.5 million people benefit from SSI each month, with a maximum individual benefit currently set at $943.
