If you receive Social Security benefits in the United States, it’s important to know exactly when your payment will arrive—especially if you rely on it for your monthly expenses. Whether you get retirement, disability, or Supplemental Security Income (SSI), the Social Security Administration (SSA) follows a set schedule every month.
Here’s everything you need to know about when Social Security checks will be sent in June 2025, broken down in a simple, easy-to-understand format.
Who Will Get Paid and When in June 2025?
Your payment date depends on three main factors:
- The type of Social Security benefit you receive
- Whether you started receiving benefits before or after May 1997
- Your birthdate, if you’re getting Social Security based on your own or a family member’s record
Full June 2025 Social Security Payment Schedule
1. Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
- Payment Date: Monday, June 2, 2025
Normally, SSI payments go out on the 1st of each month, but since June 1, 2025, is a Sunday, the payment will be sent on the next business day, June 2.
2. People Receiving Both SSI and Social Security
- Payment Date: Friday, June 3, 2025
If you get both SSI and Social Security, you’ll receive your Social Security benefit on June 3.
3. People Who Began Receiving Social Security Before May 1997
- Payment Date: Friday, June 3, 2025
If you started getting Social Security before May 1997, your payment will also arrive on June 3, no matter your birth date.
4. People Who Started Receiving Benefits After May 1997
If your Social Security started after May 1997, your payment will be based on your birth date:
- Born between the 1st–10th: Wednesday, June 12
- Born between the 11th–20th: Wednesday, June 19
- Born between the 21st–31st: Wednesday, June 26

What to Do If Your Payment Is Late
If your Social Security payment doesn’t arrive on time, the SSA advises waiting at least three business days before taking action. If it still hasn’t come, call the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213, Monday to Friday, from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
It’s also a good idea to sign up for a mySocialSecurity account at the official SSA website so you can track your payments and update your banking details.
How Will You Receive Your Social Security Payment?
Most beneficiaries today get their payments through direct deposit, which is fast, secure, and reliable. If you don’t have a bank account, the SSA offers a Direct Express® Debit Mastercard, where your funds are loaded automatically each month.
Why Are Payments Split by Birth Dates?
The SSA uses a staggered schedule based on birth dates to reduce workload pressure and customer service delays. This way, not everyone gets paid on the same day, and the system can run more smoothly.
Heads Up: Early July Payment for SSI
Here’s an important tip: SSI recipients will receive July’s payment early on Monday, June 30, 2025, because July 1 falls on a Tuesday. This early payment is part of the SSA’s policy when the 1st lands on a weekend or holiday.
Where to Find More Info

Planning your budget for June 2025 becomes a lot easier once you know exactly when your Social Security benefits will arrive. Whether you receive retirement, disability, or SSI, this schedule helps ensure you’re financially prepared.
