November Social Security direct payment worth $967 goes out in 14 days

In 14 days, people who get Supplemental Security Income payments in November will get up to $967.

Most SSI payments are sent out on the first of each month. However, November payments will be sent out the day before November starts this year because November 1 falls on a weekend. If the first of the month is a weekend or a holiday, SSI payments are sent out on the last day of the month that isn’t a weekend.

Beneficiaries are people who are blind, 65 or older, or have a disability that meets the requirements.

The amount recipients receive varies based on several factors, including the number of people filing. For instance, individuals can receive up to $967, couples filing together can receive $1,450, and essential people providing necessary care to SSI recipients can receive up to $484.

January SSI payments increased by 2.5% to keep pace with inflation.

In addition to the previous prerequisites for receiving SSI payments, recipients must also be U.S. citizens or noncitizens in one of the alien classifications granted by the Department of Homeland Security.

Additionally, they must live in one of the 50 states, Washington, D.C., or the Northern Mariana Islands and must not be absent from the United States for a full calendar month or 30 consecutive days.

A full calendar for the Social Security Administration payments can be viewed on the agency’s website.
