The next payments are scheduled to be distributed on July 1. These payments are given to people living with debilitating disabilities that affect their income, according to the Social Security Administration.
These payments and regular Social Security benefits are not connected. People who receive Social Security payments do not automatically qualify for disability payments, and vice versa.
The amount one receives depends on several factors, including the number of people filing. Applicants filing individually can receive up to $967 per month, couples filing together can receive up to $1,450, and essential persons who provide SSI recipients with necessary care can receive up to $484. Due to inflation, these figures have increased by 2.5% since last year.

To meet eligibility requirements, filers need to be at least partially blind or have a “physical or mental condition(s) that seriously limits their daily activities for 12 months or more or may be expected to result in death.”
Social Security recipients can use an SSA calculator to figure out their payment total.
