- Double SSI Payments
Eligible Social Security beneficiaries who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) can expect a special payment in March 2023, providing much-needed financial support during these challenging times. The Social Security Administration has announced that eligible recipients will receive double SSI payments in March instead of one.
The double SSI payment may sound like a reason to celebrate, but it’s important to keep in mind that there won’t be an SSI payment in April. To avoid running out of funds too soon, recipients should plan their finances accordingly.
The good news is that eligible beneficiaries don’t need to take any extra action to receive the double payment. The Social Security Administration will automatically send out the double SSI payments in March. However, it’s essential to meet the eligibility requirements to receive SSI in the first place.
