People in the United States who get Supplemental Security Income (SSI) can not wait for their November payments, which will include the 2024 cost-of-living adjustment (COLA).
This change is very important because this year’s payments will be a lot higher than those in 2023.
This will give you a lot more buying power against inflation. In this month, there are no higher payments than in previous months of the year. However, we will get a higher payment than in previous years.
This raise is because of rising prices for basic goods and services and rising inflation.
In 2024, SSI benefits will go up, which will show up in both people’s monthly checks and their ability to pay their daily bills. However, we should remember that there is something wrong with the timing of the November SSI check.
People with low incomes will be able to breathe easier now that the cost of living has gone up. Now, let us look at what you can expect from your SSI checks in November and how the COLA will change the amount of those checks.
The new SSI payments with 2024 COLA added
Because of the COLA change, SSI payments in November 2024 will be a little bigger than payments in November 2023.
This raise will be 3.2%, which means that people who get this money will get more each month. This change has to happen so that recipients can deal with inflation.
In November 2024, the payment will be the same as in every other month of that year, but it is a big jump from 2023. It will give people who depend on these payments a little more money for their daily needs thanks to this year’s COLA.
These are the days in November when Social Security will send SSI payments:
- November 1st.
- November 29th.
The payment comes in twice this month because of a mistake in the calendar. The Administration sends checks early on December 1st because it is a weekend.
This way, no one gets a check later. Having Direct Deposit turned on is still important if you want to get the check the same day it is mailed.

The change shows that the government cares about the buying power of beneficiaries by reducing price increases for transportation, food, and other necessities.
In this way, the COLA is the same as it was for the rest of 2024, but the amount is more than it was in 2023.
How to Apply for SSI and Maximize Your Payment
The automatic COLA increase will show up in the November payment for people who already get SSI. But if you have not applied for SSI yet or want to make sure you are eligible, you should do what you need to do to make sure you get the right amount.
To get the most money from SSI, make sure you meet all the standards, such as being the right age and having enough income. If you have had a job before, the amount of help may depend on how long you worked there and how much you were paid.
Now is the best time to make sure your application is up to date and you are getting what you are due to since the COLA went up. This is the biggest SSI payment ever made in the US so far, but in 2025, the COLA will make these benefits a little higher.
