SSDI Payment Amounts for November 2024 and What to Expect

In November 2024, SSDI recipients will receive their payments in four different cycles. The schedule depends on when you started receiving Social Security benefits.

For people who began receiving Social Security payments before May 1997, November 1 is their payment day.

For others, there are additional dates to look out for in November, including those who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI).

Key Payment Dates for SSDI Recipients

• November 1, 2024: This is the payday for individuals who have been receiving Social Security payments before May 1997. It is also the day when both SSDI and SSI payments will be issued. If you get both types of benefits, you will receive your payment on this date.
• November 13, 2024: For people born between the 1st and 10th of the month, this is the payday for SSDI benefits.
• November 20, 2024: If you were born between the 11th and 20th, your SSDI payment will be issued on this date.
• November 27, 2024: For those born between the 21st and 31st, this is when your SSDI payment will be sent.

Payment Amounts for SSDI Recipients

The amount of money SSDI recipients can expect to receive varies based on their individual circumstances.

The highest SSDI payment in 2024 is $3,822 per month.

However, the amount can be lower for those who have not worked for long periods, especially those who applied for disability in their 20s or 30s. In such cases, monthly payouts may be closer to $1,539.

For individuals receiving SSI, the maximum amount is $697 per month. Eligible individuals who are single can get up to $943, while married couples may receive up to $1,415 in SSI benefits.

Upcoming Changes for 2025

The SSDI payment amounts will increase in 2025. The new maximum payment will be $4,018 starting January 3, 2025. This increase reflects the annual adjustment for inflation.
