Thousands of Americans receiving Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or VA benefits can look forward to receiving a check of approximately $1,907. The Social Security Administration will be distributing these checks to specific groups of beneficiaries, each with their own individual disability benefit payment. Eligibility for this new check on April 17th, 2024, requires that the individual was born between the 11th and 20th of any month and started receiving benefits from May 1997.
In addition to the SSDI or VA checks, beneficiaries may also be eligible for Supplemental Security Income, an extra benefit provided by the Social Security Administration. This additional benefit can amount to $943 per month and is designed to assist individuals with low resources and income. To qualify for Supplemental Security Income, individuals must be 65 years of age or older, have a disability, and meet specific financial criteria.
For many families, these checks play a crucial role in supplementing retirement payments and providing much-needed financial support. The distribution of these benefits is carefully scheduled based on individual circumstances and requirements, ensuring that those in need receive the necessary assistance in a timely manner. By meeting the necessary criteria, beneficiaries can access vital financial resources to support themselves and their families.
