Americans who receive Social Security, SSDI, or SSI benefits can expect payments throughout July, with specific groups receiving payments on different dates. For those eligible for Social Security payments on July 17, 2024, certain criteria must be met, including receiving benefits since May 1997 and having a birthday between the 11th and 20th of any month. Direct deposit ensures payments arrive promptly. The SSA will issue payments on July 17 and 24, followed by SSI payments in August. SSDI payments will be made on the same days for those born between the 11th and 20th of any month. Average SSDI payments are typically $1,537. By meeting these requirements, eligible individuals can ensure timely receipt of their benefits.
