If you or someone in your family receives Supplemental Security Income (SSI) in the US, you might be surprised to see no money in your account in June 2025. But don’t panic—there’s a reason behind this. It’s not a mistake or a missed payment.
This change is part of the Social Security Administration’s (SSA) regular policy for payment scheduling. Here’s what you need to know about why there’s no SSI payment in June and what’s really happening with your money.
What Is SSI and Who Gets It?
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a monthly payment given by the US government to people who have limited income or resources. It is mainly for:
- Senior citizens (65 and above)
- People with disabilities
- People who are blind
Unlike Social Security retirement payments, SSI does not need any work history. It is completely supported by general tax money, not the Social Security trust fund.
Why There Is No SSI Payment in June 2025
Normally, SSI payments are made on the first of each month. But in 2025, June 1 falls on a Sunday. According to SSA rules, if a payment date falls on a weekend or public holiday, the payment is made earlier—on the last working day before that date.
So, for June 2025, the SSI payment was made on Friday, May 30 instead of June 1. Because of this early payment, there will be no new deposit in June. The money you received at the end of May is your June payment.
The SSA clearly states that this is not an extra payment, but just a rescheduled one.
How Much SSI Can You Receive in 2025?
The maximum SSI benefit in 2025 is:
- $967 per month for individuals
- $1,450 per month for couples
If you qualify for the full amount and you’re part of a couple, you could see up to $2,900 in May—two payments of $1,450 each (one for May and one for June). But that means you won’t receive anything in June.
Keep in mind, if you have other support like free housing or food, your SSI amount may be reduced.
Other Months With Two Payments in 2025
May isn’t the only month with two SSI payments in 2025. According to the SSA’s schedule, the same thing will happen in:
- August
- October
- December
This happens because the first day of the next month falls on a weekend or public holiday, so the payment is sent early. For example, the September payment will be given in late August because of Labor Day.
Which Months Will Have No SSI Payments?
Here are the months when there will be no SSI deposit:
- June 2025 (paid early on May 30)
- September 2025 (paid in August)
- November 2025 (paid in October)
- January 2026 (paid in December 2025)
Again, this doesn’t mean you’re missing out. It’s just that the money comes a few days earlier, and your total yearly payment stays the same—12 payments for 12 months.
Don’t Be Alarmed by the Missing June Payment
If you’re wondering why your June SSI payment didn’t arrive, remember that you already received it at the end of May. The SSA simply changed the date due to the weekend. You are not losing any money—it’s just being delivered early to make sure you don’t have to wait after the weekend.
It’s important to understand that your SSI payments are safe. They are just scheduled in a way that ensures timely delivery—even if the date falls on a weekend or holiday. Always keep track of your payment dates and check the official SSA calendar for updates.
