September’s Supplemental Security Income payment, worth up to $943, will go out to millions of beneficiaries in 25 days.

The September SSI payments will be distributed on Sept. 1. They are given to U.S. citizens living with debilitating disabilities that affect their income, according to the Social Security Administration.

Applicants who file individually can receive 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.

Filers must be at least 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.

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 total payment.
