If you receive Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), you might be wondering when your payment will arrive in June 2025. SSDI is a federal program that provides monthly financial help to people who have disabilities and have worked enough years to qualify.
This article explains how SSDI payments are scheduled, the amount you may receive, and what to do if your payment is late.
What Is SSDI and How Is It Different from SSI?
SSDI is for people who worked and paid Social Security taxes but can no longer work because of a disability. To qualify, you must show you cannot do “substantial gainful activity” (SGA), which means working at a job and earning above a certain amount.
Unlike SSDI, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is based on financial need and does not require work history. SSDI payments depend on how much you earned and paid into the system before your disability.
SSDI Payment Schedule for June 2025
The Social Security Administration (SSA) distributes SSDI payments based on your birthdate on three Wednesdays each month. For June 2025, the schedule is:
- June 11: For people born between the 1st and 10th
- June 18: For people born between the 11th and 20th
- June 25: For people born between the 21st and 31st
These dates remain the same every year unless a holiday causes a change.
If you receive your payment by direct deposit, the money usually arrives in your bank account by 12:01 a.m. on your payment day.
How Much Can You Expect to Receive?
The average SSDI monthly benefit in 2025 is about $1,751, which covers most recipients. However, if you had a high income and paid maximum Social Security taxes for many years, you could receive up to $4,018 per month.
What If I Also Receive SSI?
If you get both SSDI and SSI, your payment date is different. You will usually receive your combined payment on the 3rd day of each month, except when the 3rd falls on a weekend. In that case, the payment is made on the nearest business day before the weekend.
What To Do If Your Payment Is Late
The SSA advises you to wait three business days after your payment date to account for bank processing delays.
If the money still doesn’t arrive:
- Check with your bank or financial institution first, as they sometimes delay crediting deposits.
- If you still don’t receive your payment, contact the SSA at 1-800-772-1213.
- Have your Social Security number and bank details ready for quicker assistance.
If a problem persists, SSA can investigate to find out why your payment was delayed.
Knowing when your SSDI payment arrives can help you manage your finances better. For June 2025, payments will be sent out on June 11, 18, and 25, depending on your birthdate. If you also receive SSI, expect a combined payment around the 3rd of the month.
Remember to allow a few days for the money to show up in your bank, and contact your bank or the SSA if it’s delayed. Your disability benefits are there to support you, so staying informed about payment schedules is important.
