Social Security retirement, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments can fluctuate based on the earnings of SSI recipients and the taxes paid to the Social Security Administration (SSA) in the past.

As of September 2024, the average payments for August have shown positive changes compared to July, providing some relief to recipients.

Current Average Payments

  • Retirement Benefits: The average monthly check for all retired workers has reached $1,920, an increase of $1 from July. Spouses of retired workers receive an average of $909, while children get around $892. Compared to January, retirement benefits have increased by $13; checks then were $1,907.
  • SSDI Payments: Beneficiaries of SSDI saw their average payments rise from approximately $1,489 in December 2023 to $1,539 in August 2024. This represents only a $2 increase compared to January.
  • SSI Payments: Currently, the average SSI check stands at $698. While there has been a recent increase, recipients had previously experienced a decrease in their benefits during the last SSA announcement.
