Recipients of Social Security will receive two payments in the first week of May 2025 due to June 1 falling on a Sunday. Typically, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments are distributed on the first day of each month. However, when this date falls on a weekend or federal holiday, payments are rescheduled. Consequently, beneficiaries will receive their payments early on May 30, 2025, and none in June.
A similar situation will occur in August, with payments scheduled for August 1 and August 29 due to the Labor Day holiday. Individuals should review the Social Security Payment Eligibility Criteria for 2025 to confirm their qualification for benefits.
Eligibility criteria include being at least 62 years old, having retired, and potentially having dependents or a spouse with a disability. Cost of living adjustments have increased payments by 2.5%, with the new rate for claimants filing at age 67 set at $4018 per month.
To claim these payments, individuals must complete an online form via the Social Security Administration’s website. Steps include creating a login with a social security number, selecting the appropriate program, and submitting necessary documentation.
For accurate and secure information, beneficiaries are encouraged to verify details on the official Social Security website.
