Eligible recipients of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) should prepare for their next federal payment arriving via direct deposit or paper check on May 30, 2025.
While the regular June SSI payment was originally scheduled for June 1, that date falls on a non-business day (Saturday), prompting the Social Security Administration (SSA) to issue payments two days earlier to avoid delays.
This early deposit is not a bonus or an extra payment, but rather the scheduled June payment delivered in advance.
The maximum amount for SSI in 2025 reaches $1,450 for eligible married couples, with different payment tiers based on individual eligibility and state-level supplements.
Why Is the SSI Payment Coming on May 30?
The SSA follows a strict 12-payment-per-year cycle for SSI. When a payment date falls on a weekend or federal holiday, it is moved forward to the nearest business day.
| Original Payment Date | Revised Payment Date | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| June 1, 2025 (Saturday) | May 30, 2025 (Friday) | Weekend closure of banks & SSA |
As a result, recipients must plan ahead and budget accordingly, since their next Supplemental Security Income check will not arrive again until July 1, 2025.
Maximum SSI Payments in 2025
Supplemental Security Income payment amounts depend on marital status, eligibility classification, and state supplements. Here is a breakdown of the maximum federal SSI benefits:
| Eligibility Category | Maximum Monthly Payment |
|---|---|
| Individual | $967 |
| Married Couple | $1,450 |
| Essential Person | $484 |
- Important: If you live in a state that offers a state supplement, your total benefit may be higher than the federal maximum.
Average SSI Payments by Age Group
Although some individuals may receive the maximum payment, the average Supplemental Security Income payment varies widely by age group:
| Age Group | Average Payment (2025) |
|---|---|
| Under 18 | $844 |
| Aged 18–64 | $764 |
| 65 and older | $592 |
| Overall Average | $717 |
This variation reflects the unique living conditions, income, and disability status of each beneficiary.
Can You Receive More Than $1,450?
While $1,450 is the maximum federal benefit for a married couple, some states provide additional supplements, especially for:
- People living independently
- People in special care facilities
- People with no income or fewer resources
If you believe your state offers additional support, check with your state social services department or your SSA office to understand the total amount you may receive.
Key Reminders for SSI Recipients
To ensure timely and accurate payments:
- Report any changes in income, marital status, or living arrangements immediately
- Keep your direct deposit information updated
- Review your SSA statements regularly to verify your benefits
- New applicants can apply online or visit a local SSA office to check eligibility and begin the process
The Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) for 2025 will not be applied until December 31, 2025, so don’t expect any increase in this May 30 payment.
