A new round of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) direct payments is scheduled to hit bank accounts on Tuesday, July 1, delivering up to $1,415 to eligible recipients.
This marks the first major federal benefit disbursement for the month of July 2025, and it comes just days before the Independence Day holiday weekend.
Who Gets the $1,415 Social Security Payment?
The $1,415 payment is the maximum federal SSI benefit for eligible couples filing jointly. Here’s a quick breakdown of maximum monthly SSI amounts for July 2025:
- Individuals: $943
- Couples (both eligible): $1,415
- Essential persons (assisting SSI recipients): $472
These figures are based on the 2025 cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) issued by the Social Security Administration (SSA) earlier this year.
SSI is a needs-based program designed to support aged, blind, and disabled individuals with limited income or assets.
Payments are typically issued on the 1st of each month, unless that day falls on a weekend or holiday.
No Double Payments in July
While some months include early disbursements, July will not see a second SSI payment.
That’s because there was no advance payment in June, which sometimes occurs if the 1st of the month lands on a weekend. Since July 1 falls on a Monday, the schedule remains uninterrupted.
Key Details for Social Security Recipients
- Payment Date: Monday, July 1, 2025
- Method: Direct deposit or mailed paper check
- Agency: Social Security Administration (SSA)

What’s Next in July 2025?
SSI is just the first wave of federal benefits this month. Regular Social Security retirement and disability checks will be distributed throughout July based on recipients’ birth dates and enrollment history:
- July 3: Recipients who began collecting benefits before May 1997
- July 10, 17, 24: Payments for all other Social Security beneficiaries, based on birthdays
A growing number of Americans are relying on timely Social Security payments for essential expenses, especially amid rising costs for housing, food, and medical care.
According to SSA data, over 7.5 million individuals receive SSI each month.
