Some Social Security recipients could get 3 checks in May
(NewsNation) — For some Social Security recipients, May could bring three checks from the Social Security Administration. Anyone who receives Supplemental Security Income from the agency will receive two payments in May, in addition to their regular Social Security benefit check. The Social Security Administration pays out Social Security benefits and Supplement Security Income (SSI), but the programs are different. SSI is need-based. It goes to people who are 65 and older, blind or disabled, and who have low income and very limited resources. Social Security calculator: Figure out your monthly benefits As of March of this year, the agency reported more than 7.4 million people — seniors, adults and children — receive SSI benefits. Recently, some individuals have reported receiving notices that they were 'not receiving benefits.' However, the Social Security Administration has said that these notices were sent by mistake. If you want to monitor your payments in May, you can find the agency's retirement benefit schedule online for 2025 and 2026. The SSA staggers its retirement payments by your birth date, which has the following breakdown: Wednesday, May 14: Birth dates between the 1st and the 10th Wednesday, May 21: Birth dates between the 11th and 20th Wednesday, May 28: Birth dates between the 21st and 31st If you receive SSI, you will receive two payments in May: One on Thursday, May 1, and another on Friday, May 30. The May 30 payment is technically for June, so you won't receive another SSI payment until July 1.

If there is no delay, you can call the agency at 1-800-772-1213 or contact your local Social Security office. You can also use NewsNation's Social Security calculator to estimate your monthly benefit. As of last month, some recipients have also started receiving bigger benefit checks due to the Social Security Fairness Act. Anyone who received a public sector pension in retirement that was previously restricted due to the Windfall Elimination Provision and the Government Pension Offset had their benefits updated in April. As a result, about 3.2 million people who worked as police officers, firefighters, teachers, and in other public service roles will now get larger Social Security payments. The larger payment should also be reflected in eligible beneficiaries' May checks, and going forward. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
