What to Do If You Don’t Receive Your SSDI Payment
If your payment is delayed, first check with your bank to see if there’s an issue with direct deposit. If it’s not resolved, contact the Social Security Administration (SSA) for further assistance.
Supplemental Benefits for Low Payments
If your SSDI payment is insufficient to cover your living expenses, consider applying for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits to help make ends meet.
