The requirements for a new monthly SSI payment include meeting certain conditions related to income level. This means that many families in the United States may have access to this payment without knowing it. For that reason, it is a good idea to check all the conditions for obtaining this check, as it can result in an extra payment of up to $967 each month.
If you have already accepted this payment and are expecting to get it soon, you should know that in the coming weeks the Social Security Administration will send the new SSI (Supplemental Security Income) to all eligible beneficiaries. And to be eligible it is mandatory to have the payment accepted in advance, something that only happens if we have applied for the check at least one month in advance.
To find out all the conditions related to the SSI Supplemental Security Income payment we have to look at the official Social Security website, but it is true that there are two minimum requirements to keep in mind. Apart from that, we must also bear in mind that the payment is made once a month, with some exceptions.
When does the new SSI Supplemental Security Income arrive?
On April 1st, 2025, the Social Security Administration will pay the new SSI Supplemental Security Income payment to all eligible beneficiaries. If you are part of this group of United States citizens, you will be able to enjoy the check on this day.
Of course, remember that you have to have Direct Deposit activated in order to receive the payment on the same day it is sent, since the SSI Supplemental Security Income check is sent on the 1st but without this collection method the payment will arrive in the following days. It usually takes a maximum of 3 days from the time it is sent by the Administration.
Requirements to obtain the monthly SSI Supplemental Security Income
There are two mandatory requirements to be able to get a monthly SSI Supplemental Security Income payment of up to $967. It is also important to know that the payment we receive is not the same for all beneficiaries. Each citizen has a different check depending on their personal situation.
Thus, the requirements to receive SSI Supplemental Security Income are:
- Be at least 65 years old or have a disability.
- Having a low monthly income, as well as low resources.
Both requirements are essential, but it is true that many United States citizens eligible for SSI Supplemental Security Income are not aware that they can apply. Therefore, if we are eligible, it is advisable to apply as soon as possible in order to enjoy a little extra money every month.
