Posted by The Social Security Administration (SSA) has released the official payment calendar for June 2025, and there are four scheduled payout dates for retirees.
However, no Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments will be issued in June itself. Instead, SSI recipients will receive their June benefit on May 30, 2025, since June 1 falls on a weekend, making early distribution necessary.
Key Payment Dates for June 2025
The first Social Security payment of the month will be sent out on June 3, 2025. This date applies to:
- Retirees who began collecting benefits before May 1997
- Recipients receiving both SSI and Social Security benefits
Those who started benefits after April 30, 1997, will receive their payments based on their birthdate, across three subsequent Wednesdays.
Social Security Payment Dates Based on Birthdays
The SSA uses your birthdate to determine which Wednesday of the month you will be paid. Here’s a breakdown:
| Birthdate Range | Payment Date |
|---|---|
| 1st – 10th | June 11, 2025 |
| 11th – 20th | June 18, 2025 |
| 21st – 31st | June 25, 2025 |
To qualify for these dates, you must:
- Have started Social Security after April 30, 1997
- Be 62 years or older
- Not be receiving SSI payments
June 2025 Social Security Benefit Amounts
The exact amount you receive each month from Social Security depends on multiple factors:
- Age at which you filed for retirement benefits
- Years of employment and your earnings history
- Whether your jobs were always covered under Social Security taxes
Here’s a quick look at estimated payment ranges for June:
| Payment Category | Estimated Amount |
|---|---|
| Average Payment | $1,999 per month |
| Maximum Benefit | Up to $5,108 monthly |
| Minimum (Early Filing) | Lower than $1,000 |
Those who retired early, worked fewer years, or had lower earnings are likely to receive a smaller monthly check. Conversely, long-term high earners may collect the maximum benefit.
Who Is Eligible for June 2025 Payments?
To receive a June 2025 Social Security payment, the following must apply:
