The third round of May’s Social Security payments, worth up to $5,108 for the highest-income earners who retire at age 70, will go out to retirees today. Here is all you need to know about May’s Social Security payments.

SSI recipients were scheduled to get two checks in May – one on May 1 (the check for May 2025) and a second is coming on May 30 (the check for June). For months when the first of the month falls on a federal holiday or a weekend, SSI benefits are issued early – June 1 is a Sunday.
