Millions of Americans relying on Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments may notice an unusual gap in June’s disbursement schedule.
Following an early payment on May 30, the Social Security Administration (SSA) will not issue any new payments for the next 12 days—leaving many wondering why the delay exists and when they can expect their next check.
Here’s what beneficiaries need to know about the June 2025 payment calendar, why no funds are being sent out in early June, and how to prepare for the upcoming schedule changes.
June 2025 Social Security Payment Schedule
Date | Recipient Group |
---|---|
May 30 | SSI beneficiaries (June payment issued early due to June 1 falling on a Sunday) |
June 3 | Social Security recipients who began benefits before May 1997 |
June 11 | Birthdates between the 1st–10th |
June 18 | Birthdates between the 11th–20th |
June 25 | Birthdates between the 21st–31st |
Note: The early SSI payment on May 30 means no SSI checks will be issued in June.
Why No SSI Payments in June?
The absence of SSI payments in June is due to a scheduling adjustment: since June 1 falls on a Sunday, the Social Security Administration (SSA) issued the June SSI payments early, on May 30. This ensures beneficiaries receive their funds without delay, but it also means there will be no SSI payments during June.
Upcoming Double SSI Payments
Beneficiaries can expect double SSI payments in the following months due to similar scheduling adjustments:
- August: Payments on August 1 and August 29
- October: Payments on October 1 and October 31
- December: Payments on December 1 and December 31
These adjustments occur when the first of the month falls on a weekend or holiday, prompting the SSA to issue payments on the preceding business day.
Tips for Social Security Beneficiaries
- Plan Ahead: Be aware of these scheduling changes to manage your finances effectively.
- Stay Informed: Regularly check the SSA’s official payment schedule for updates.
- Set Up Direct Deposit: Ensure timely receipt of your benefits by enrolling in direct deposit.
The early issuance of SSI payments for June 2025 is a routine adjustment by the SSA to accommodate calendar anomalies. While there will be no SSI payments in June, beneficiaries have already received their funds on May 30.
Looking ahead, similar adjustments will result in double payments in August, October, and December. Staying informed and planning accordingly can help Social Security beneficiaries navigate these changes smoothly.
