If you haven’t received your SSDI payment for June yet, don’t worry—it’s coming soon. Millions of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) beneficiaries are set to receive their payments this week.
This marks the final monthly SSDI payment for June, with different recipients receiving their funds based on their birthdates.
Payment Schedule for SSDI Beneficiaries
The SSDI payments for June 2025 are being distributed in four separate installments throughout the month. Beneficiaries are grouped according to their date of birth, which determines when they will receive their payment.
- For beneficiaries born between the 1st and 10th of any month, the payment was issued on June 11th, which is the second Wednesday of the month.
- For those born between the 11th and 20th, payments were sent on June 18th, the third Wednesday of the month.
- Finally, beneficiaries born between the 21st and 31st of any month will receive their payment on June 25th, just a couple of days away.
Special Note for Pre-May 1997 Recipients
For those who were approved for SSDI payments before May 1997, the payment date was June 3rd. These recipients follow a different payment schedule and always receive their payments at the start of each month, regardless of their birthdate.
Maximum SSDI Benefit Amount
The maximum SSDI payment for 2025 is $4,018. However, only a small group of beneficiaries qualify for this amount. To qualify for the maximum benefit, you must have 40 work credits, with at least 20 of those earned during the last 10 years before your disability began.
In addition to these work credits, you must have had a high earnings history throughout your career, contributing to the maximum taxable amount for Social Security most years.
Your benefit is calculated based on your 35 highest-earning years, so if you earned the maximum taxable amount (which is projected to be $176,100 in 2025) for those years, you will be eligible for the maximum SSDI payment.
What to Do If Your SSDI Payment Is Late
If you haven’t received your SSDI payment by the expected date, here’s what to do:
- Wait Three Business Days:
Sometimes, there may be delays due to external factors such as processing issues at your bank or postal distribution problems for those receiving checks by mail. - Contact the SSA:
If your payment still hasn’t arrived after three business days, you should contact the Social Security Administration (SSA). Call the SSA customer service line at 1-800-772-1213 during their operating hours, which are from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. (local time). For those who are hearing impaired, the SSA can also be reached via TTY at 1-800-325-0778. Be sure to have your Social Security number on hand for identification purposes.
The SSDI payment schedule for June 2025 is in full swing, with payments being distributed based on your birthdate. The maximum SSDI payment of $4,018 is available to those with extensive work history and contributions.
If you encounter any delays in receiving your payment, be sure to follow the appropriate steps to resolve the issue and contact the SSA if necessary.
