Why this happens
SSI is paid on the 1st of every month. When the 1st falls on a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, Social Security pays on the business day before, which can be the last business day of the previous month. That leaves one month with two deposits and the next month with none. The total you receive over the year does not change.
Your money already arrived
Look for an SSI deposit on Friday, July 30, 2027 in your bank statement. That is your August payment. If it is not there, contact Social Security.
