Social Security SSI Payment Schedule Adjustments and February 2026 Deposit Delays Explained

In 2026, Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients will receive 12 full payments despite no checks being issued in March, August, and November, as the Social Security Administration advances deposits when the first of the month falls on a weekend. In February 2026, some beneficiaries experienced delays in early deposits due to a website glitch and varying bank processing times. These scheduling adjustments aim to maintain consistent benefit delivery without reducing total payments.
