The Social Security Administration (SSA) is set to distribute SSI checks worth $967 to eligible recipients on Friday, February 28, 2025.
This payment provides crucial financial support to many low-income individuals, ensuring they can cover essential living expenses such as housing, utilities, and groceries.
Who Will Receive the SSI Payment?
-
Individuals eligible for SSI will receive up to $967.
-
Married couples can receive a combined benefit of up to $1,450.
-
Essential persons (those who provide necessary care for a recipient) may receive $484.
These payments reflect a 2.5% Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) for 2025, designed to help beneficiaries manage inflation and rising living costs.
Why Is the Payment Arriving on February 28?
The SSA follows a structured payment schedule to prevent delays when the first of the month falls on a weekend or holiday.
Since March 1, 2025, falls on a Saturday, payments are being issued one day earlier, on the last working day of February.
