Supplemental Security Income recipients are set to receive two payments in the month of May instead of just one. It also won't be the last time it happens this year. Read on to find out why you'll receive two payments this month and when it will happen again.

Because of the calendar, Social Security recipients who get Supplemental Security Income benefits get two checks in May, but no check in June.

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