Social Security to be paid out tomorrow, Wednesday, June 3: Who receives benefits?

Some Social Security beneficiaries are to get their latest monthly money this week, as the U.S.’s Social Security Administration (SSA) begins its June payment schedule.

On Wednesday, June 3, benefits are to be issued to two groups of Social Security recipients.

June’s Social Security payments are to be sent out to recipients who began claiming their benefits before May 1997.

This Wednesday is also June’s Social Security distribution date for beneficiaries who combine the program with Supplemental Security Income (SSI).

A scheme for certain low-income, low-resource individuals, SSI differs from Social Security as eligibility does not depend on a recipient’s employment history.

In June, SSI benefits – which currently average $738.22 per month – are to be issued on Monday 1.
