SSI recipients were scheduled to get two checks in May – one on May 1 (the check for May 2025) and a second is coming on May 30 (the check for June). For months when the first of the month falls on a federal holiday or a weekend, SSI benefits are issued early – June 1 is a Sunday.

The third round of Social Security payments will be delivered to recipients soon. If you're unsure when you should expect your check, we have you covered with the payment schedule for the month of May.

Social Security payments typically begin on the second Wednesday of every month, and the following waves go out in the subsequent weeks.
