In October 2024, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) recipients will receive payments on four different dates, depending on their eligibility and birthdate. These payments follow Social Security’s regular schedule but have specific guidelines based on individual circumstances, including Supplemental Security Income (SSI) eligibility.
SSDI Payment Schedule for October 2024
The first SSDI payment in October 2024 will be on October 3, reserved for those who qualify for both SSDI and SSI and for individuals who have been receiving SSDI since before May 1997. The remaining SSDI recipients will receive their payments on three consecutive Wednesdays, depending on their birthdate:
- October 9: Recipients born between the 1st and 10th.
- October 16: Recipients born between the 11th and 20th.
- October 23: Recipients born between the 21st and 31st.
This staggered schedule ensures that all SSDI recipients receive their payments in an orderly fashion based on their birthdate or other qualifications.

Payment Amounts and Variations
On average, SSDI recipients receive around $1,539 per month, but the amount can vary significantly. Factors that affect payment amounts include work history, earnings, and age at the time of filing for benefits. High earners can receive up to $3,822 per month if they’ve delayed filing until the maximum allowed age. Additionally, spouses and children of SSDI recipients may qualify for smaller benefits.
