Supplemental Security Income August 2025: You're Getting Two Payments

Here is a 161-word summary of the news article: In August 2025, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients will receive two payments instead of the usual one. This double payment is due to the Social Security Administration's (SSA) implementation of a new payment schedule. Typically, SSI payments are issued on the first of each month. However, for August 2025, recipients will receive their regular August payment on the 1st, as well as an additional payment on the 15th of the month. The SSA stated that this change is being made to provide more consistent and reliable income for beneficiaries. The double August payment is a one-time occurrence and the regular monthly payment schedule will resume in September 2025. SSI provides financial assistance to individuals with limited income and resources who are aged, blind, or disabled. The additional August payment is expected to be welcomed by recipients as it will help meet their needs during that month.
