Millions of Americans depend on Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) as their primary source of financial support each month.
With April 2025 just around the corner, it’s crucial for beneficiaries to understand the exact payment dates and amounts, as any delays or changes could significantly impact their household budgets.
This guide covers everything you need to know about April 2025 SSDI and SSI payment schedules, eligibility, and payment amounts.
SSI Payments: Scheduled for April 1, 2025
For those receiving SSI, payments are set to be issued on April 1, 2025. If you are also eligible for SSDI, expect to receive your Disability Insurance check just two days later, on April 3, 2025.
Who Receives SSDI on April 3?
There are two primary groups of SSDI recipients who will receive payments on April 3:
- Dual entitlement beneficiaries, those who receive both SSI and SSDI.
- Individuals who began receiving SSDI benefits before May 1997.
If you’re receiving both SSI and SSDI, it typically means that you have limited income and resources. While some SSI recipients receive the full monthly benefit, others may receive a lesser amount based on their individual financial situation.

- Maximum SSI benefits for April 2025 are as follows:
- $967 for individuals
- $1,450 for married couples
- The average SSI payment is around $715, though this can vary depending on the recipient’s financial circumstances.
SSDI Payments: Issued Throughout April
The average SSDI payment for recipients is approximately $1,580 per month, based on the latest Social Security Administration (SSA) data from February 2025.
However, some recipients may qualify for the maximum SSDI benefit, which could reach up to $4,018 per month in 2025.
When Will SSDI Payments Be Issued in April 2025?
After the initial payment on April 3, the SSA will issue additional SSDI payments in three separate rounds, based on the recipient’s birthdate:
- April 9, 2025: For those whose birthdays fall between the 1st and 10th of any month.
- April 16, 2025: For those whose birthdays fall between the 11th and 20th of any month.
