The Social Security Administration (SSA) follows a staggered payment schedule based on your birth date. Here’s when SSDI recipients can expect their June payments:

| 1st – 10th of any month | June 12, 2025 |
| 11th – 20th of any month | June 19, 2025 |
| 21st – 31st of any month | June 26, 2025 |
Important: If you receive both SSDI and Supplemental Security Income (SSI), your SSDI is paid on the 3rd of each month.
How Much Will You Receive?
The average SSDI benefit in 2025 is around $1,537 per month, but your actual amount depends on your earnings history, disability onset date, and any dependent benefits.
- Maximum SSDI benefit: Up to $3,822/month (for those with high lifetime earnings)
- Spouse and children may also qualify for auxiliary benefits if applicable

1. COLA Bump Could Be on the Horizon
While the official Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) for 2026 won’t be announced until October, inflation trends hint at a modest increase of around 2.3%. This could lead to higher SSDI payments starting in January 2026.
