Supplemental Security Income recipients are set to receive their next payment in a little more than four weeks, according to the Social Security Administration.

This payment, scheduled for May 1, is one of 12 payments that SSI recipients receive in a year. These SSI payments are sent out to recipients on the first business day of the month. For months where the first takes place on a weekend or holiday, the checks are sent on the last business day of the previous month, according to the SSA.

Other groups also qualify for the May 1 payment, including certain eligible couples. Eligible couples will receive a payment of $1,371, and essential people, who live with a person receiving SSI and provide them with necessary care, will get a check worth $458.

SSI recipients are receiving no payment in the month of April because they got two payments in March, one on March 1 and another on March 31. The latter payment served as April's payment because April 1 falls on a Saturday this year.

SSI payments were first issued by the Social Security Administration in January 1974, and the amount recipients have received has increased for cost-of-living adjustments each year since 1975, the agency said.

The supplemental payments are separate from the retirement pay that retirees receive each month.
