Millions of beneficiaries will receive their September Supplemental Security Income payment, worth up to $943, in 22 days.

September SSI payments will be distributed on Sept. 1 to citizens living with debilitating disabilities that affect their ability to make a living, 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 a period of 12 months or more or may be expected to result in death” to be eligible for payments.

Applicants who file individually are eligible for up to $943 per month, couples filing jointly can receive up to $1,415, and essential persons, those who provide SSI recipients with necessary care, receive up to $472. Inflation has caused these amounts to increase by 3.2% since last year.

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

Recipients can use a calculator from the SSA to determine their payment in total.
