3 Different Disability Payments For These Individuals In November

The Social Security Administration (SSA) has scheduled payments for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) for November 2024.

While typically, individuals receive one payment for each benefit type per month, some recipients will get three payments in November due to how the payment schedule aligns.

Who Is Eligible for Both SSI and SSDI?

Certain individuals qualify to receive both SSI and SSDI if they have a disability, low income, and limited resources.

SSI is primarily for people with disabilities, blind individuals, or seniors aged 65 and older with limited income, while SSDI is for individuals with a qualifying disability who have paid enough Social Security taxes.

If you qualify for both programs, it’s possible to receive three payments in November. Here’s how:

November 2024 Payment Schedule

  • November 1, 2024:
    • SSI Payment: This is the regular SSI payment for eligible recipients, including seniors, people with disabilities, and blind individuals.
    • SSDI Payment: Recipients who began receiving SSDI before May 1997, or those who receive both SSI and SSDI, will also receive their SSDI payment on this date.
  • November 13, 20, and 27, 2024:
    • SSDI Payments: For those on SSDI who don’t qualify for the November 1 SSDI payment, they will receive their payment on one of these dates, depending on their birth date.
  • November 29, 2024:
    • SSI Payment for December: Since December 1 falls on a weekend, SSI recipients will receive their December SSI payment early, on November 29.

Who Will Get Three Payments in November?

Recipients who qualify for both SSI and SSDI and meet specific criteria will receive three payments in November:

  1. SSI Payment on November 1: For individuals who qualify for SSI, this is their regular payment for November.
  2. SSDI Payment on November 1: If you started receiving SSDI before May 1997 or receive both SSDI and SSI, you’ll also receive your SSDI payment on this date.
  3. SSI Payment on November 29: This is the December SSI payment sent early because December 1 falls on a weekend.

Payment Amounts

  • SSI: The maximum SSI payment for 2024 is $943 for single individuals and $1,415 for eligible couples.
  • SSDI: The average SSDI payment is approximately $1,539, though individuals who receive both SSI and SSDI typically receive a lower SSDI amount.

Summary of Who Gets Three Payments

If you are receiving both SSI and SSDI, you could get three payments in November 2024:

  1. November 1: Your regular SSI payment.
  2. November 1: Your SSDI payment (if you qualify for the November 1 SSDI check).
  3. November 29: Your early SSI payment for December.

These three payments will provide essential financial support to individuals with disabilities, ensuring they have sufficient resources heading into December.
