June’s Supplemental Security Income payment, worth up to $967, will go out to millions of beneficiaries today.
The amount received depends on several factors, including the number of people filing. Applicants filing as individuals can receive up to $967 per month, couples filing together can receive up to $1,450, and essential persons who provide SSI recipients with necessary care can receive up to $484. Inflation has caused these amounts to increase by 2.5% since last year.

The next SSI payments are scheduled to be distributed on May 30 because June 1 falls on a Sunday. SSI payments are given to people living with debilitating disabilities that affect their income, according to the Social Security Administration.
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.
