Social Security payment dates in June 2025
Social Security payments in June 2025 arrive on three separate dates, depending on when you were born. The Social Security Administration (SSA) staggers payments across the month so the system can process them smoothly. Your payment date is fixed — it does not change month to month — so once you know which date is yours, you can expect payment on that same date every month.
If you receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI), your payment arrives on the first of the month. For Social Security retirement, disability, or survivor benefits, your payment date depends on your birth date. Beneficiaries born on the 1st through the 10th receive payment on the second Wednesday of the month. Those born on the 11th through the 20th receive payment on the third Wednesday. Those born on the 21st through the 31st receive payment on the fourth Wednesday.
In June 2025, this means Social Security retirement and disability payments arrive on June 11, June 18, or June 25, depending on your birth date. SSI payments arrive on June 2. If a payment date falls on a weekend or federal holiday, the SSA deposits the payment on the business day before.
Key Takeaways
- Social Security retirement and disability payments arrive on June 11, 18, or 25, 2025, based on your birth date — the 1st through 10th get June 11, the 11th through 20th get June 18, and the 21st through 31st get June 25.
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments arrive on June 2, 2025, which is the first business day of the month.
- Your payment date stays the same every month once it is assigned, so you can plan around the same date each time.
- If your payment date falls on a weekend or federal holiday, the SSA sends the money on the business day before instead.
- Direct deposit is the fastest way to receive your payment — it typically posts to your bank account one to two business days before the official payment date.
How to find your specific payment date
You can find your exact payment date by logging into your my Social Security account at ssa.gov. Once you sign in, your dashboard shows your payment date under the "Payment Information" section. This is the most reliable way to confirm which Wednesday your June payment will arrive.
If you do not have a my Social Security account, you can create one at ssa.gov using your email address, Social Security number, and a phone number. The account takes a few minutes to set up and gives you access to your payment schedule, benefit amount, and earnings record.
You can also call the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) to ask about your payment date. Have your Social Security number ready. Wait times are typically shorter early in the morning on weekdays.
Direct deposit versus check or card payments
Direct deposit is the fastest way to receive your Social Security payment. Money typically posts to your bank account one to two business days before the official SSA payment date. This means if your payment date is June 11, the money may arrive in your account on June 9 or June 10.
If you receive your payment by check, it arrives by mail and typically takes several days after the official payment date. If you use a Direct Express card (a debit card issued by the SSA), the payment posts on your official payment date or the business day before if that date falls on a weekend.
You can change your payment method through your my Social Security account or by calling 1-800-772-1213. Switching to direct deposit takes about one to two months to process, so if you want direct deposit for your June payment, you should make the change by early May.
What to do if your June payment is late
If your payment does not arrive by the business day after your official payment date, contact the SSA right away. Call 1-800-772-1213 and have your Social Security number and bank account information ready. The SSA can tell you whether the payment was sent and help you trace it if it is missing.
If you use direct deposit, check with your bank first — sometimes payments are delayed on the bank's end rather than the SSA's. Your bank can tell you whether the deposit is pending or whether there is a problem with your account.
If you receive a check by mail and it does not arrive within a week of your payment date, the SSA can issue a replacement check or arrange a direct deposit instead. This process usually takes one to two weeks.
Changes to your payment in June 2025
Your June 2025 payment amount is the same as your May payment unless you reported a change in your income, living situation, or family status to the SSA. If you reported a change, the SSA will send you a notice explaining any adjustment to your benefit amount before your June payment is sent.
Cost-of-living adjustments (COLA) are applied once per year, usually in December, so your June payment reflects the COLA that took effect in December 2024. You can see your current benefit amount in your my Social Security account.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if my birthday is on the 1st — do I get SSI or Social Security payment?
If you receive Social Security retirement, disability, or survivor benefits and your birthday is on the 1st, your payment arrives on the second Wednesday of the month (June 11 in 2025). SSI payments are separate and arrive on the 1st of the month. If you receive both, you get two separate payments on two different dates.
Can I change my payment date?
No, the SSA assigns your payment date based on your birth date and your benefit type, and you cannot change it. However, you can change how you receive the payment — switching from check to direct deposit, for example — which may affect when the money reaches your account.
Will my payment arrive on June 2 if June 2 is a Monday?
Yes. SSI payments arrive on the first of the month, and if that date falls on a weekend or federal holiday, the payment is sent on the business day before. June 2, 2025 is a Monday, so SSI payments arrive on schedule that day.
What happens if I move and my address changes?
If you use direct deposit, your payment date does not change — the money goes to your bank account as usual. If you receive a check by mail, update your address with the SSA through your my Social Security account or by calling 1-800-772-1213 so your check goes to the right place. Allow two to three weeks for the address change to process.
Can I get my June payment early?
No, the SSA sends payments on the schedule tied to your birth date. You cannot request an early payment. If you need money before your payment date, contact a local community organization or 211 to learn about emergency information programs in your area.
