United States citizens who have a Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefit payment get a check each month for up to $943. However, sometimes we encounter irregularities in the calendar that force the Social Security Administration to send these checks on different days.
The day these checks are sent is always the 1st of the month, with some exceptions. In this sense, the month of September has an exception, which means that some Americans cannot have their Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payment within the days of the month. While this may seem like bad news, it is actually more common than it sounds.
The good news is that if we have a Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payment, we will get it every month with no exceptions. In other words, by the end of the year we will have gotten 12 payments of this benefit from Social Security. So the check for up to $943 will appear in everyone’s checking account.
Who does not get Supplemental Security Income (SSI) in September?
First of all it should be noted that no one has to worry about getting the September calendar Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payment. This payment arrives to all citizens who have the accepted benefit, but some get it before the beginning of September.
The payment of this benefit is not sent in September due to an irregularity in the calendar. Thus, the check was sent on August 30th, which means that the payment may arrive earlier. In order to have the payment within the month of September we have to keep in mind that:
- We should not activate Direct Deposit. This will cause the payment to arrive within the month of September.
- We must have the Supplemental Security Income benefit accepted.
Thanks to these two conditions, the payment can arrive within September. But the truth is that if we have Direct Deposit activated, the payment always arrives on the same day it is sent, which can be an advantage in many cases.
Be that as it may, remember that every month you have a new check for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) to enjoy the benefit of up to 943 dollars. This money can be used for whatever you need, such as other Social Security retirement or disability payments.
