SSDI Payment: The Social Security Administration (SSA) has announced that the final SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance) payments for August will be sent out in six days. However, not everyone will receive this payment—only those meeting specific criteria will qualify. Here’s what you need to know about eligibility, payment dates, and what to expect.
Eligibility for the August 28 SSDI Payment:
To be eligible for the SSDI payment on August 28, 2024, you must meet the following conditions:
1. Birth Date Requirement:
This payment is for SSDI beneficiaries whose birthdays fall between the 21st and the 31st of any month. If your birthday is within this range, you’re eligible to receive the payment.
2. Filing Date and Benefit Start:
You must have filed for and started receiving SSDI benefits after April 30, 1997. If you began receiving benefits before May 1997, your payments are likely on a different schedule.
3. SSI Recipients Excluded:
Those receiving both Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and SSDI will not receive this payment on August 28. Instead, SSI recipients have a different payment schedule, with the next SSI payment arriving on August 30, 2024.
SSDI Payment Schedule Details:
- August 28, 2024: SSDI payments for beneficiaries born between the 21st and 31st of any month.

How Much Will SSDI Beneficiaries Receive on August 28?

If your SSDI payment is below average, you may want to consider applying for additional benefits like SSI or SNAP (Food Stamps) to help cover basic expenses.
Additional Benefits for Lower Payments:
