Confirmed RSDI Payment Schedule for May 2025: Checks up to $1,547 to $1,980

RSDI (Retirement, Survivors, and Disability Insurance) payments are designed for individuals receiving benefits related to retirement, survivors, or disability. These payments are only available to eligible employees. In some cases, the spouse or children of an eligible employee may also receive these payments, even if they have never worked. Eligibility for these payments depends on the employee’s work record.

This means that even if your spouse has never worked, they can still receive RSDI payments, provided they meet all the eligibility conditions. If you want to receive RSDI payments, it is important that you have applied and received approval from the administration. For example, if you are eligible for retirement benefits, you need at least 40 work credits, which are earned over about 10 years. An employee can only earn 4 work credits per year, and covered earnings of $1,810 (up from $1,730 in 2024) are required to receive one credit.

RSDI Payment Dates for May 2025

The Social Security Administration (SSA) has confirmed that there will be four different payment dates for RSDI recipients in May 2025. It is important to note that each recipient will only be eligible on one payment date. The payment dates for May 2025 will be as follows:

• May 2: RSDI recipients who began receiving Social Security before May 1997.
• May 2: Retirement, Survivor, and Disability Insurance recipients who are simultaneously receiving Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
• May 14: Those who are not on SSI and who began receiving benefits after April 30, 1997, with birth dates between 1 and 10.
• May 21: Those who are not on SSI and who began receiving benefits after April 30, 1997, with birth dates between 11 and 20.
• May 28: Those who are not on SSI and who began receiving benefits after April 30, 1997, with birth dates between 21 and 31.

SSI payment schedule:

If your income is low and you have limited resources, you may also qualify for Supplemental Security Income (SSI). In this case, you may receive both a reduced RSDI payment and SSI.

The following will be the SSI payment dates in May 2025:

• May 1: SSI payments for all eligible recipients.
• May 30: SSI payments for all eligible recipients for June.

RSDI payment amount

The amount of your monthly RSDI payment will depend on the work income you earned, your age when you applied for benefits, and other factors. For example, if you only worked for ten years, your monthly payment amount will be less.

It is important that you work for at least 35 years so you can receive a larger amount. On average, RSDI recipients receive $1,839.83 per month, the amount for February was announced in March.

The average payment for Old Age and Survivor Insurance is slightly higher. It is about $1,894. Retirement benefits are about $1,931.20. Retiring workers can receive an average of $1,980. A spouse can receive an average of $932 and a child can receive an average of $919.

Survivor and disability insurance recipients receive an average of $1,547 and $1,580, respectively, which are lower on average. Therefore, payments for survivor and disability insurance recipients are relatively low.

Can a spouse and child receive RSDI payments?

If a worker is disabled and his or her spouse or child meets all the qualifications, they can also receive SSDI (Social Security Disability Insurance) payments. This payment is also available only if they meet the conditions set by the administration.

Conclusion

RSDI payments are especially important for individuals who are receiving retirement, survivor, and disability insurance. This payment is made based on the eligibility criteria set by the Social Security Administration. RSDI payment dates are already scheduled in May 2025, and you will receive payments according to this schedule.

If you are eligible for SSI, you may also receive additional assistance, which will help ease your financial burden. The amount of the payment will depend on the work credits you have earned and other factors. If you have worked for a long time, you may receive a higher amount.

Both RSDI and SSI benefits are extremely important to U.S. citizens and residents, and understanding these benefits can help you improve your financial health.
