July’s Supplemental Security Income payment, worth up to $967, will go out to millions of beneficiaries in 26 days. The next SSI payments are scheduled to be distributed on July 1. SSI payments are given to people living with debilitating disabilities that affect their income, according to the Social Security Administration.

The Social Security Administration says it has processed 2.5 million retroactive payments to people previously locked out of retirement benefits.

After dealing with downsizing and frequent changes to policies, employees at the Social Security Administration are reportedly overwhelmed. A huge factor contributing to this stress is the expectation to quickly wrap up all the cases related to the new Social Security Fairness Act.
