Families relying on Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) will soon receive their SSDI February payments up to $2520. The Social Security Administration (SSA) has confirmed that the first round of payments will go out on February 12, 2025. But not everyone qualifies for this specific date.
Here’s what you need to know about SSDI payments this month and whether your family is eligible to receive up to $2,520.
Who Will Get SSDI February Payments Up to $2520?
If you are receiving SSDI and your birthday falls between the 1st and 10th of any month, your payment will be deposited on February 12. However, there are some exceptions. If you started collecting SSDI before May 1997, you won’t receive your payment on this date. Instead, you should have already received it earlier in the month.
Also, if you are on the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program, this payment schedule does not apply to you.
How Much Can SSDI Recipients Expect?
The amount you receive depends on several factors, including your work history. On average, a worker with a disability receives about $1,580 per month. If a spouse also qualifies for benefits, they may get around $431. Children who qualify for Disability Insurance benefits can receive an average of $509. This means that a family receiving SSDI could get about $2,520 in total.
For those with higher lifetime earnings, SSDI payments can be significantly larger. The maximum benefit for 2025 is $4,018 per month. To qualify for the highest amount, a person must have worked for at least 35 years in jobs covered by SSA, earned at or above the taxable maximum, and filed for benefits at the right time.
