The Social Security Administration (SSA) is preparing to issue the final round of Social Security payments for June 2025.
If you haven’t received your deposit yet, it could arrive within the next 48 hours, especially if your birthday falls in the last third of the month. For some eligible retirees, the amount could reach as high as $5,108 this month.
Here’s everything you need to know about Social Security payment dates, amounts, eligibility, and how you can check if you’re due for this week’s payout.
June 2025 Social Security Payment Schedule
Social Security payments are distributed according to two major criteria:
- Claim date (before or after May 1997)
- Birth date for those who began receiving benefits after May 1997
Here is a breakdown of June 2025’s Social Security payment schedule:
| Group | Birth Date Range / Criteria | Payment Date |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-May 1997 Beneficiaries | Any | June 3, 2025 |
| Post-May 1997, born 1st–10th | June 11, 2025 | |
| Post-May 1997, born 11th–20th | June 18, 2025 | |
| Post-May 1997, born 21st–31st | June 25, 2025 |
The final June Social Security payment will be made on Wednesday, June 25, 2025, to those born between the 21st and 31st of any month.
How Much Will You Receive? Up to $5,108 Possible
In 2025, Social Security benefits vary based on your work history, age at retirement, and when you began claiming. Here’s an estimate of average and maximum payment amounts:
| Benefit Type | Average Payment (2025) | Maximum Payment (2025) |
|---|---|---|
| Retired Workers | $2,010 | $3,822 |
| Delayed Retirement (age 70) | — | $5,108 |
| Widowed Parent with Two Children | $3,761 | — |
| SSI (Supplemental Security Income) | $943 (individual) | $1,415 (couples) |
To qualify for the maximum $5,108, a retiree must have:
- Delayed claiming benefits until age 70
- Contributed at or near the maximum taxable income ($176,100 in 2025) for at least 35 years
Who’s Eligible for This Week’s Payment?
To receive the June 25, 2025 payment, you must:
- Have started receiving Social Security after May 1997
- Have a birth date between the 21st and 31st of any month
- Have filed all necessary paperwork with the SSA and met eligibility criteria
Those who receive SSI benefits or began collecting before May 1997 have already been paid earlier in the month.
Looking Ahead to July 2025
The payment schedule remains consistent for July:
| July 2025 Payment Date | Birth Date Range |
|---|---|
| July 9 | Born 1st–10th |
| July 16 | Born 11th–20th |
| July 23 | Born 21st–31st |
| July 3 | Pre-May 1997 or SSI |
Additionally, COLA projections for 2026 suggest an increase of 2.4% to 2.5%, but this remains subject to final inflation data later this year.
