Social Security update: November direct payment worth $943 goes out in 24 days

November’s Supplemental Security Income payment, worth up to $943, will go out to millions of people in 24 days.

SSI payments are distributed to people living with debilitating disabilities that affect their incomes, according to the Social Security Administration.

Filers must be partially blind or have a “physical or mental condition(s) that seriously limits their daily activities for 12 months or more or may be expected to result in death” to be eligible for payments.

Applicants who file individually may receive up to $943 per month, couples filing jointly can receive up to $1,415, and essential persons, or those who provide SSI recipients with necessary care, can receive up to $472.

Recipients can use a calculator from the SSA to figure out their total payment.

SSI payments and regular Social Security benefits are not connected. Those who receive Social Security payments do not automatically qualify for SSI payments and vice versa.
