The Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program just recently said that everyone who is sick and got benefits after May 1997 and was born between May 11th and May 20th will get a new SSDI payment right away.
If you are one of these disabled people, keep an eye on your bank account because you will be getting a new Social Security check.
Do not forget that the cost of living adjustment (COLA), which started at the beginning of the year, is already built into this payment. This way, everyone who gets it can keep up with inflation.
People in the US think of Social Security as one of the largest government social protection programs. The coverage of this insurance plan is to give regular payments to millions of elderly, disabled, survivors, and other weak people to meet their basic needs.
According to the Social Security Administration, over 67 million Americans, mostly retirees, got Social Security payments in 2023. These benefits added up to more than $1 trillion.
To be more specific, SSDI is a government program that gives monthly payments to disabled workers who can show they can not do a substantial gainful activity (SGA) and have paid FICA or SECA taxes in the years before they became disabled.
A new SSDI payment was confirmed for disabled people
Individuals who want to receive SSDI benefits must have worked before they became disabled, as their disability benefits will be based on their past wages.
Remember that regular income does not affect SSDI benefits, but people who get benefits should know that getting disability payments from other sources could mean less money each month.
The Social Security Administration sends millions of payments to people who are disabled every month through SSDI. The amounts vary based on the type of disability, work history, and contributions to the system before they became disabled.
Based on the Social Security Administration’s meaning of blindness, you may be able to get an SSDI payment of up to $2,590 if your better eye’s vision can not be fixed to better than 20/200.
You may also be able to get the highest disability payment of $3,822 if your contributions were based on your taxable maximum earnings and the number of years you worked before you got sick or hurt.
Remember that there are times when it can be hard to understand how the Social Security Administration works and what its rules are. Because of this, you should talk to a financial advisor or an SSA expert.
When will disabled people receive their SSDI payment this month?
This month, Americans with disabilities will get two extra payments, one on the third and one on the fourth Wednesday of the month, based on when they were born.

Social Security will distribute SSDI payment amounts between $1,500 and $3,822
People with disabilities should get up to $1,000 a month in benefits, but this amount could change. For instance, if you are blind, you could get up to $2,590 a month in benefits.
Depending on how much you paid into Social Security before you became disabled, the Social Security Administration (SSA) could give you as much as $3,822 a month. Also, it is important to know that blind people who have jobs can apply for SSDI funds.
In the same way, blind workers who earn credits while working may be able to get Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) payments.
People who are blind can borrow money from their parents’ or husbands’ income if they do not have enough credits at the time of the accident.
