Get ready—another round of $2,000‑plus Social Security checks will be hitting bank accounts on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, marking the second of three monthly payment dates as set by the Social Security Administration (SSA).
This batch includes retirees, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), and survivor benefits for those born between the 1st and 10th of any month. Here’s exactly what you need to know.
Payment Schedule for June 2025
The SSA divides monthly payments across three Wednesdays based on birth dates:
| Date | Recipients |
|---|---|
| June 11, 2025 | Born 1st–10th, Retirement, SSDI, Survivor |
| June 18, 2025 | Born 11th–20th |
| June 25, 2025 | Born 21st–31st |
People who started benefits before May 1997 receive on the 3rd of each month, regardless of birth date. Meanwhile, SSI recipients were paid early—on Friday, May 30—because June 1 fell on a weekend, so they won’t receive another SSI payment until July 1.
Who Receives Payments on June 11
On June 11, 2025, the SSA will pay:
- Retirees whose birthdays fall between 1st and 10th
- SSDI recipients (same birth-range)
- Survivor benefit recipients born within the same period
Remember, SSI payments were already issued on May 30, so if you receive both, your SSI check will arrive in July with no second SSI payment in June.
How Much Are People Receiving?
- Average retired-worker check: $1,999.97 per month
- Average SSDI benefit: $1,581.88
- Average survivor benefit: $1,565.52
- Average SSI: $717.87
These averages reflect April 2025 data from SSA. The maximum monthly retirement benefit as of 2025 is $5,108, achievable by those who delay claiming until age 70 .
What Affects These Payments?
• Birthdate determines payment date
Your birthday governs which Wednesday your check hits, except for pre‑May 1997 recipients and SSI.
• Cost‑of‑Living Adjustment (COLA)
In January 2025, the SSA implemented a 2.5% COLA, increasing average retirement benefits from around $1,903 (May 2025) to about $1,976–$1,999.97.
• Supplemental payments & state supplements
Some states add extra SSI or SSDI funds. Example: California SSI individual limit is $1,206.94 in 2025.
Who Might See Reduced Payments This Month?
Approximately 450,000 older Americans may receive reduced June checks due to federal student loan default garnishments.
