SSI payments in June 2025 follow the same schedule as every other month, based on your birth date

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments arrive on the same day each month, and that day depends on when you were born. The Social Security Administration does not send all payments on one date — instead, they stagger them across three dates in the first two weeks of each month. If your birthday falls between the 1st and 10th of any month, you receive your payment on the second Wednesday. If it falls between the 11th and 20th, you get paid on the third Wednesday. If it falls between the 21st and 31st, your payment arrives on the fourth Wednesday.

For June 2025, this means payments will land on June 11, June 18, or June 25, depending on your birth date. The exact date does not change from month to month — once you know which Wednesday applies to you, that is your payment day every single month, including June. You can confirm your specific payment date by logging into your my Social Security account at ssa.gov, calling 1-800-772-1213, or visiting your local Social Security office.

How to check your June 2025 payment date

The fastest way to find your exact payment date is to log into your my Social Security account at ssa.gov. Once you are signed in, select "Payments" from the menu, and you will see your payment schedule listed there. The account also shows the amount you receive each month and a history of past payments.

If you do not have a my Social Security account, you can create one in about 10 minutes using your email address, Social Security number, and a phone number. You will need to verify your identity through a third-party service like ID.me or Login.gov. If you prefer not to use an online account, you can call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213 (Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Eastern time) and ask a representative for your payment date. You can also visit your local Social Security office in person.

Direct deposit versus debit card: which method you use for June

SSI payments arrive through one of two methods: direct deposit to a bank account, or a prepaid debit card issued by Social Security. Direct deposit is faster — the money lands in your account on your payment date, often before 9 a.m. A debit card typically receives the payment by the end of your payment date, though it can take until the next business day.

If you do not have a bank account, Social Security will issue you a debit card automatically. This card works like any other debit card at ATMs and stores. If you already have a bank account and want to switch to direct deposit, you can set it up through your my Social Security account or by calling 1-800-772-1213. You will need your bank's routing number and your account number. The change usually takes one to two months to go into effect, so if you request it in May, your June payment may still arrive on the debit card.

What to do if your June payment does not arrive on time

If your payment date passes and you have not received your money, first check your my Social Security account to confirm the correct date. If the date has already passed and the payment is not in your account or on your debit card, wait one business day — deposits sometimes process overnight. If it still has not arrived after one business day, contact Social Security at 1-800-772-1213.

When you call, have your Social Security number ready and be prepared to describe when you expected the payment and which method you use (direct deposit or debit card). A representative can check whether the payment was sent and, if it was, trace where it went. If there was an error with your bank account information or if the payment was lost, Social Security can reissue it. This process usually takes five to seven business days.

Changes to your payment amount in June

Your SSI payment amount can change if your income, living situation, or household composition changes. Social Security reviews your case regularly and sends a notice if your payment will increase or decrease. If you receive a notice that your June payment will be different from May, read it carefully — it will explain what changed and when the new amount takes effect.

Common reasons for payment changes include starting or stopping work, a change in rent or living expenses, receiving other income, or a family member moving in or out of your home. If you believe the change is wrong, you can request a reconsideration by calling 1-800-772-1213 or visiting your local Social Security office. You have 60 days from the date on the notice to request a reconsideration.

If you receive both SSI and Social Security retirement or disability benefits

Some people receive both SSI and Social Security retirement or disability benefits (SSDI). If this applies to you, you will have two separate payment dates. Your SSDI payment follows a different schedule based on your birth date, and your SSI payment follows the schedule described above. Both payments may arrive on different days of the month.

You can see both payment dates in your my Social Security account under "Payments." If you have questions about which payment is which, call 1-800-772-1213 and ask a representative to explain your payment schedule. They can also help you understand how your two benefits interact and whether any changes to your income or situation might affect either payment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my birthday is on the 31st — which payment date do I get?

If your birthday is on the 31st, you fall into the third group (21st through 31st) and receive your payment on the fourth Wednesday of each month. For June 2025, that is June 25.

Can I change my payment date if June 11, 18, or 25 does not work for me?

No, your payment date is tied to your birth date and cannot be changed. However, if you use direct deposit, the money arrives early enough that you can plan around it. If you use a debit card and need the money earlier, you can request direct deposit to a bank account instead.

Will my June payment be affected by the cost-of-living adjustment?

The cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) takes effect in January each year, not in June. Your June 2025 payment will reflect the COLA that was announced in October 2024 and went into effect in January 2025. If there is a new COLA announced in October 2024, it will not affect your June payment.

What happens if June 11, 18, or 25 falls on a holiday?

If your payment date falls on a federal holiday, Social Security sends the payment on the business day before the holiday instead. For example, if your payment date is a Wednesday that falls on a holiday, you will receive it on Tuesday. Check your my Social Security account or call 1-800-772-1213 to confirm the exact date if you are unsure.

Can I get my June payment early if I need it before my scheduled date?

No, Social Security does not send payments early. Your payment arrives on your scheduled date each month. If you need money before then, you may want to explore whether you have other resources or whether you may have access to for emergency information through a local program.
