The Social Security Administration (SSA) has released its payment schedule for June 2026, outlining when millions of beneficiaries will receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and regular Social Security retirement payments. The calendar helps recipients plan monthly budgets and understand how payment timing may shift due to weekends or holidays.
SSI Payment Date
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients will receive their June payment on Monday, June 1, 2026. SSI benefits are generally issued on the first day of each month unless that date falls on a weekend or federal holiday, in which case payments are moved to the prior business day.
SSI supports eligible individuals with limited income and resources, including older adults and people with disabilities.
Social Security Payment Schedule
Regular Social Security retirement and disability payments are issued based on the beneficiary’s birth date. In June 2026, payments will follow the standard Wednesday distribution system:
- June 10: Birth dates between the 1st and 10th
- June 17: Birth dates between the 11th and 20th
- June 24: Birth dates between the 21st and 31st
This staggered system helps the SSA manage distribution efficiently across tens of millions of recipients.
Why Payment Dates Shift
SSI payments may occasionally arrive earlier than expected when the first day of a month falls on a weekend or holiday. In those cases, the SSA issues payments on the last business day of the previous month.
This scheduling method ensures recipients do not experience delays in accessing monthly benefits.
Future Early Payments
According to the SSA calendar, additional early payment adjustments will occur later in 2026. For example, SSI payments for August will be issued on July 31 because August 1 falls on a Saturday.
Similar adjustments will also occur in November and at the start of 2027 due to holiday scheduling conflicts.
Months With Three Payments
Some beneficiaries who receive both SSI and regular Social Security may receive three payments in certain months, including October and December 2026.
This occurs when SSI payments are adjusted for calendar timing, while regular Social Security payments continue on their usual schedule.
As a result, recipients may receive overlapping payments within a single month, followed by a gap in the next month.

The SSA’s published SSI schedule for 2026 includes the following payment dates:
- June 1, 2026
- July 1, 2026
