Supplemental Security Income payments for April 2026 will be distributed on Wednesday, April 1.
SSI disbursements typically occur on the first of the month, but are advanced when that date falls on a weekend or holiday. In 2026, four consecutive monthly payments - April through July - will land on the 1st. The August payment, however, will be issued early on Friday, July 31, because August 1 is a Saturday.
Here is the full 2026 SSI payment schedule:
- April 1, 2026
- May 1, 2026
- June 1, 2026
- July 1, 2026
- July 31, 2026 (August payment)
- September 1, 2026

Administered by the Social Security Administration, SSI provides monthly benefits to low-income individuals aged 65 or older, blind, or disabled - including children with qualifying conditions. Approximately 7.4 million Americans receive SSI, with one-third also collecting Social Security retirement or disability benefits.
