Before the end of August, thousands of United States citizens can get one of the new Social Security checks to use it for whatever they need. However, several requirements must be met in order to have this new check that will appear in bank accounts on August 30th, 2024.
It is possible to have access to this payment by fulfilling just a couple of requirements. The Social Security Administration sets some requirements for this type of benefit, so it is possible that we meet them and we can apply for them. If this is the case, we may have up to $943 extra in the next few days. If not, we might get this check in the next few months as well.
Be that as it may, we should check well both the requirements for this monthly payment and the requirements to get this check from the Social Security Administration on the same day August 30th, 2024. Otherwise, we may also get this payment, but a few days later. If we are eligible for the check, we will still get it regardless of whether we meet all the requirements or not.
Who gets the extra from the Social Security Administration?
On August 30th, 2024, the Social Security Administration will send this extra payment to a specific group of Americans. Citizens who have accepted Supplemental Security Income can get this check. However, not all Americans with this accepted benefit have access to the payment on the same day it is mailed.
In order to be able to collect the August 30th payment on the same day of August 30th, it is mandatory to have activated Direct Deposit. Only in this case we can have the payment directly to our bank account without having to wait even one day. However, if we do not have this collection method activated, the payment will arrive within a few days after it is sent. If we have the benefit activated, the money will arrive, but in a few days later.
Also, remember that the maximum benefit for this payment is $943, but that each Supplemental Security Income recipient gets a different amount. Having a payment of this benefit does not mean having a check that high, although there is a possibility of getting a payment of that amount.
How do I qualify for SSI from the Social Security Administration?
To be eligible for this monthly payment, you must meet two requirements. If you meet them, the Social Security Administration will send a payment of up to $943 to your bank account each month. So be sure to check to see if you are eligible. If you have not requested the payment and you are eligible, apply for the benefit as soon as possible.
The first of the requirements is that you must be 65 or older or have a disability. Either of these two requirements is valid to apply for the check. However, you must meet a second requirement, which is to have a low monthly income, as well as low resources. Only if you meet these two requirements will you be able to obtain this monthly benefit from the Social Security Administration.
