The first payment of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits in 2024 will be made on November 13.
This important payment will go out to those who meet certain criteria based on their birthdates. Read on to learn when you will receive your payment and what makes you eligible for SSDI.
Key Eligibility Criteria for November 2024 SSDI Payment
To qualify for the SSDI payment on November 13, 2024, the Social Security Administration (SSA) will verify that your birthday falls between January 1st and October 10th.
If your birthday falls within this range, you are eligible to receive your payment on the scheduled date.
However, there are a couple of situations where you won’t be able to get this payment. These include:
- Disability Insurance Benefits Before May 1997: If you applied for and started receiving Disability Insurance benefits before May 1997, you won’t be eligible for the November 13 payment.
- Receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI): If you currently receive SSI benefits, you will not be eligible for SSDI payments in November.
When Will You Get Your SSDI Payment?
On November 13, 2024, people who meet the birthday requirement will receive their SSDI payments.
If your birthday falls outside of the January 1st to October 10th range, your payment will be made on either November 20 or November 27, depending on your birthdate.
- November 13-20: If your birthday is between November 11 and November 20, you will receive your payment on November 20.
- After November 20: If your birthday falls after November 20, your SSDI payment will arrive on November 27.
SSI Payments on November 29
For those receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI), the payment for December 1st has been moved to November 29, 2024. This date marks the official payment for SSI, which is for people with disabilities who qualify for these benefits.
How Much Can You Expect to Receive?
In 2024, SSDI payments vary based on the individual’s work history and taxes paid into Social Security. While high earners can get up to $3,822 per month, most recipients will receive a more average amount of around $1,542.
Your SSDI amount is determined by:
- Work History: How many years you’ve worked and paid Social Security taxes.
- Wages Earned: The amount of money you earned during your working years.
- Age When You Filed for Disability: The age at which you apply for SSDI also impacts the payment amount.
SSDI payments are an important part of financial support for those who are unable to work due to a disability.
Understanding the eligibility criteria and payment dates can help ensure that you receive your benefits on time. Be sure to check your birthdate eligibility and other requirements to ensure that you get the support you need.
What if I applied for SSDI before May 1997?

When will I get my payment if my birthday is after October 10?
