Summary
- SSDI payments to be made on August 28 for those born 21st-31st
- Average SSDI amount in 2025 is around $1,537, maximum is $5,108

As of August 22, 2025, millions of Americans who rely on Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) are set to receive their final payment for the month on August 28. This payment is intended for SSDI beneficiaries who were born between the 21st and 31st of any month, as per the staggered system used by the Social Security Administration (SSA) to distribute funds throughout the month.
The amount of the SSDI payments can vary depending on the applicant's work history and previous income. However, the average SSDI amount in 2025 is around $1,537 per month. For those who qualify for the maximum benefits, the payment can reach up to $5,108 per month. This significant increase is due to the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) introduced in January 2025, which is designed to help beneficiaries preserve their purchasing power amid rising inflation.
Beneficiaries can check the status of their payment through their account at My Social Security on the official SSA.gov website. They can also receive notifications by email or text message if the option is activated in their personal profile. As the August 28 payment approaches, SSDI recipients are advised to double-check their payment dates and ensure their banking details are up to date with the SSA to avoid any delays or transfer issues.
