Under the current calendar, July 4 lands on a Saturday in 2026, causing federal offices to observe the holiday on Friday, July 3.This change mainly affects people receiving both SSI and Social Security benefits, along with retirees who started collecting Social Security before May 1997.

Since August 1 falls on a Saturday, the Social Security Administration must send the money on the previous business day.That means SSI beneficiaries will receive no payment during August even though they already collected the benefit early at the end of July.

When will June 2026 Social Security payments arrive for retirees and SSI beneficiaries? The June 2026 Social Security payment schedule will follow the regular monthly calendar with no delays or holiday-related disruptions. Retirees born between the 1st and 10th will receive benefits on June 10, while those born later in the month will get payments on June 17 and June 24. SSI recipients and pre-1997 beneficiaries will also receive scheduled deposits on time through the Social Security Administration.Q2. Why are SSI recipients getting two Social Security-related payments in July 2026? SSI recipients will receive two payments in July because August 1, 2026, falls on a Saturday, forcing the Social Security Administration to issue the August benefit early on July 31. Beneficiaries will still receive their normal July 1 payment first, but there will be no separate SSI payment sent during August due to the adjusted federal payment schedule.
