November Social Security Check Schedule Revealed: Some Won’t Receive Payment
The ongoing government shutdown has raised concerns among Social Security recipients regarding their payments in November. However, both Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments will continue, as they do not require congressional approval.
November 2025 Social Security Check Schedule
In November 2025, approximately 74 million individuals will receive their Social Security benefits according to a structured payment schedule. The distribution will occur as follows:
- November 12: Beneficiaries born between the 1st and 10th of the month.
- November 19: Beneficiaries born between the 11th and 20th of the month.
- November 26: Beneficiaries born between the 21st and 31st of the month.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Payments
It’s important to note that there will be no SSI payments issued in November. Since November 1 falls on a Saturday, the November check was paid early on October 31. The next SSI payment will be on December 1, 2025.
Approximately 7.4 million Americans receive monthly SSI benefits. Many of these recipients also qualify for Social Security payments.
