Understanding SSDI Payment Dates


How Are SSDI Payment Dates Determined?

SSDI payments are scheduled according to your date of birth, not your state of residence. The general payment schedule is:


  • If you were born on the 1st-10th: Payments are made on the second Wednesday of each month.
  • If you were born on the 11th-20th: Payments are made on the third Wednesday of each month.
  • If you were born on the 21st-31st: Payments are made on the fourth Wednesday of each month.


For example, if your birthday is on March 7, you will receive your SSDI payment on the second Wednesday each month.


Exceptions to the Payment Schedule
  • If you started receiving SSDI before May 1997, you will receive your payment on the third of each month, regardless of your birth date.
  • If the payment date falls on a federal holiday, your payment will be deposited on the preceding business day.


How to Check Your SSDI Payment Dates in Mississippi
  • Use Your SSA Online Account
    The easiest way to check your SSDI payment dates is by:
  • Creating a my Social Security account at www.ssa.gov/myaccount.
  • Logging in to view your benefit payment schedule, payment history, and any upcoming changes to your benefits.
  • Check Your Award Letter
    Your original SSDI award letter includes your specific payment date. Keep this letter for your records, as it confirms your monthly deposit schedule.
  • Review Your Bank Account Statements
    SSDI payments are made via direct deposit. Reviewing your bank account statements will show you the exact date your payments arrive each month.
  • Call the SSA Directly
    If you’re unable to access your payment date online, you can call the SSA at
    1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778). SSA representatives can provide your payment schedule and address any payment-related concerns.


Tips to Avoid Missed Payments
  • Keep your direct deposit information up to date with the SSA to avoid delays.
  • Notify the SSA immediately if you change banks or move to a new address.
  • Monitor your SSA online account regularly to stay informed about any changes in your benefits or payment schedule.
