According to the Social Security Administration, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) will continue to pay out in phases in January and February 2025, with qualifying beneficiaries getting up to $1,530.
Beneficiaries whose birthdays occur between the first and tenth of any given month received their first SSDI payment on January 8. Beneficiaries born between the eleventh and twentieth of any given month will receive their second payment on January 15.
Third (and last) SSDI payment coming next week
The second, third, and fourth Wednesdays of the month are when payments are made, as you can see. Therefore, on January 22nd, recipients who were born between the 21st and the 31st of any given month will get their third payment.
Furthermore, the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payment will now be paid on January 31 instead of February 1.
The reason for this calendar shift is that any payment dates that fall on holidays or weekends are moved to the closest prior working day because the SSA does not make payments on these days.
SSDI Eligibility Requirements in 2025
Candidates must have at least 40 work credits, 20 of which must have been acquired in the previous 10 years, in order to be eligible for SSDI.
The inability to undertake substantial work as determined by the SGA criterion is one of the disability requirements set forth by the SSA. People who are legally blind fulfill particular requirements that enable them to receive special benefits and higher income restrictions.
After accounting for the 2.5% Cost of Living Adjustment, the monthly Substantial Gainful Activity (SGA) cap for non-blind beneficiaries is set at $1,530 for 2025.
The income level that the Social Security Administration deems to represent considerable work is determined by this cap. Benefits may be denied if this threshold is exceeded.
For legally blind individuals, the monthly SGA limit is $2,700, which has been modified to account for average national wages. Every year, the figures are revised to take into account the state of the economy.
It is possible for disabled adults to get up to 50% of their parents’ SSDI benefits as supplemental compensation. The amount received may change if there are other family beneficiaries.
