The Administration has announced that the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payment for April 1, 2025, will be processed on that specific date.
This is different from the earlier months, where payments were issued ahead of schedule in January, February, and March.
The payment will be issued on April 1, 2025, and all SSI beneficiaries will receive their direct deposit or check on this date.
Comparison with Social Security Payments
Unlike Social Security retirement or Disability Insurance payments, which have multiple paydays throughout the month, SSI beneficiaries will all receive their payment on the same day.
Social Security recipients, on the other hand, have four different paydays, and each person only qualifies for one of them based on their birthdate.
Additional Social Security Payments in April
Besides SSI payments, Social Security beneficiaries will also receive their payments on April 3, 2025.
This date is significant for some retirees and SSDI recipients who will receive their payment according to the Social Security Administration’s payment schedule.
To be eligible for the April 3 Social Security payment, one must meet one of the following criteria:
- You are receiving both SSI benefits and Social Security at the same time.
As a result, some recipients could receive two different payments—SSI on April 1 and Social Security on April 3—within just 48 hours.
Average SSI Payment Breakdown
The amount of your SSI payment is tailored to each individual and is determined by the Social Security Administration (SSA).

- Individual: Up to $967
