Be prepared to verify your identity by providing your Social Security number and other personal details.

3. Visit a Local SSA Office in New York

For in-person assistance, you can visit a Social Security field office near you. Offices can help with:

When to Expect SSDI Payments

Most SSDI payments are made monthly and are typically deposited on:

• The 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Wednesday of each month
• Your payment date depends on your birth date

Check your award letter or online account for your specific schedule.

Common Reasons for SSDI Payment Delays

• Bank account errors (wrong account number or closed account)
• Address changes not reported to SSA
• Redeterminations or reviews in progress
• Holidays that push deposit dates

If your payment is late, contact SSA immediately.
