Summary
Four Social Security payment rounds are set for November 2026, starting Tuesday, Nov. 3, with pre-May 1997 beneficiaries and people receiving both Social Security and SSI paid first.
Veterans Day shifts the second-Wednesday payment forward by one day, so beneficiaries born from the 1st to the 10th will receive their regular November benefit on Tuesday, Nov. 10, not Wednesday, Nov. 11.
SSI recipients will not get a November deposit because that payment was sent early on Oct. 30; the next SSI payments are Dec. 1 and Dec. 31, with the latter covering January 2027.
November checks still use 2026 benefit levels, while the 3.6% COLA takes effect with January 2027 payments; the maximum federal SSI benefit rises from $994 to $1,029.
