Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits are two distinct programs designed to assist millions of Americans in need.
While both offer monthly payments, they differ in eligibility criteria, payment amounts, and purposes.
This article will break down the details of each program and provide important information on when recipients can expect their payments.
What Is SSDI and Who Can Receive It?
SSDI is a government program that provides financial assistance to individuals who are unable to work due to a qualifying disability. To qualify for SSDI, you must have previously worked and paid into Social Security taxes.
Additionally, you must have a disability that either prevents you from working for over a year or is expected to result in death.
SSDI recipients receive a monthly payment based on their earnings history. The average SSDI payment for 2025 is $1,581, with the maximum possible payment reaching up to $4,018.
When Will SSDI Payments Be Issued?
For those who qualify for SSDI, the next payment will be deposited on June 25, 2025. However, only recipients who meet the following criteria will receive their payments on this date:
- Born between the 21st and 31st of the month.
- Not receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
- Began receiving Social Security benefits after April 30, 1997.
Who Can Receive SNAP Benefits and When?
Unlike SSDI, SNAP benefits do not require prior work history. These benefits are intended to help low-income individuals and families purchase food each month.
While some recipients are required to work, this only applies to those aged 18-54 who are not exempt from the Able-Bodied Adult Without Dependents (ABAWD) work requirement. These individuals must work at least 80 hours per month to maintain eligibility.
For SNAP payments, there are specific eligibility criteria and payment dates for each state. On June 25, 2025, only two states, Texas and Florida, will issue Food Stamp benefits. If you live in one of these states and meet the eligibility requirements, you can expect to receive your SNAP payment on that date.
Payment Dates for Texas and Florida
- Texas SNAP Payment Schedule:
- EDG numbers ending in 32-34: Benefits will be available on June 25.
- EDG numbers ending in 86-88: Benefits will be available on the 25th of the month.
- Florida SNAP Payment Schedule:
- Case numbers with 9th and 8th digits 86-88: Food Stamp benefits will be issued on the 25th.
How Much Can SSDI and SNAP Recipients Expect to Receive?
SSDI Payment Amounts
The amount of SSDI benefits you receive depends on your earnings history and work background. While each recipient’s payment may vary, here are the averages for 2025:
- Average SSDI payment: $1,581.
- Maximum SSDI payment: $4,018.
SNAP Payment Amounts
SNAP payments are designed to help cover grocery expenses, and the amount you receive depends on your household size and eligibility. On average, a single person will receive around $199. However, if you qualify for the full SNAP benefit, the payments can be significantly higher:
- A single person can receive up to $292.
- A family of 4 can receive up to $975.
- A family of 8 can receive up to $1,756.
In summary, both SSDI and SNAP provide essential financial assistance to different groups of people, but their eligibility and payment structures vary significantly.
If you are receiving SSDI or SNAP benefits, it’s important to understand the eligibility criteria and when your payments are scheduled to arrive.
For those in Texas and Florida, June 25, 2025 is an important date to note, as both SSDI and SNAP payments will be issued on that day for eligible recipients.
