The Social Security Administration (SSA) distributes Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) monthly payments using a staggered system. In February 2025, beneficiaries will receive their payments on different Wednesdays of the month, depending on their birth date.
•Born between the 1st and 10th: Payment on February 12th
•Born between the 11th and 20th: Payment on February 19th
•Born between the 21st and 31st: Payment on February 26th
This system has been in place since 1997 to help manage the distribution of funds.

Average Payment Amount

The average monthly SSDI payment in 2025 is $1,976. However, individual payments can vary. The specific amount a beneficiary receives depends on their work history, retirement date, and the age at which they decided to retire.
Exceptions to the Schedule
There are some exceptions to the standard SSDI payment schedule. If you started receiving benefits before May 1997 or if you also receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI), your payment arrives on the 3rd of each month.
What to Do If Your Payment Is Late
If you do not receive your payment on the expected date, the SSA advises waiting three mailing days before taking action. If, after this time, the payment hasn't arrived, the first step is to contact your bank to ensure there are no issues on their end. If the bank confirms everything is fine, you should then contact the SSA to resolve any potential problems.

Other Important Information

•The SSDI program supports 7.3 million Americans.
•The payment schedule is based on the beneficiary's date of birth.
•The SSA has a calendar outlining payment dates.
•Recipients born between the 1st and 10th of the month will receive their February payment on February 12th.
