According to Vibes.okdiario, Retirees are about to receive their November Social Security payments, and this month, the Social Security Administration (SSA) has scheduled a payment date two days earlier than usual, landing just one day after Halloween.
Advance Payment for Eligible Retirees
This advance payment means that millions of eligible retirees will receive their benefits earlier than expected. It’s important to note that these retirement benefit payments are only available to individuals who have filed for and received approval for Social Security benefits.
Payment Date and Reason for Change
The next scheduled payment from the SSA will be issued on November 1, 2024. This early payment is unusual, as retirees typically receive their first check of the month on the third. However, since November 3 falls on a Sunday when banks and SSA offices will be closed, eligible retirees will receive their payments two days ahead of schedule.
SSI Payments on November 1, 2024
In addition to the Social Security payments, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) will also be disbursed on November 1. Therefore, retirees who qualify for both Social Security and SSI will receive two payments on the same day.

Payment Amounts for Retirees
For November 2024, the average payment for retirees aged 62 or older is approximately $1,921. SSI beneficiaries can expect checks of about $697, though the exact amount varies based on earnings, resources, and work history. Here are the maximum payment amounts for retirees on November 1:
- Filed at age 62: Up to $2,710
- Filed at Full Retirement Age: Up to $3,822
- Filed at age 70: Up to $4,873
COLA Increase Timeline
It’s important to note that these November payments will not include the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) increase. The COLA will be sent out on December 31, 2024 for SSI recipients and in January 2025 for retirees and SSDI beneficiaries.
Conclusion
Eligible retirees should prepare for their upcoming Social Security payments on November 1, which will arrive earlier than usual this month. With the added SSI payments, many will have additional funds to manage their expenses as the holiday season approaches.
