Supplemental Security Income
By Staff Reporters

Stocks popped 2% this week, as investors expect the Fed to soon pause or dial back interest rates after the release of the June inflation report. Central bankers have raised rates from zero to over 5% since March of last year, a move that led the S&P 500 to shed 20% in 2022.
And yet, No SSI for you!
DEFINITION: Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a means-tested program that provides cash payments to disabled children, disabled adults, and individuals aged 65 or older who are citizens or nationals of the USA. SSI was created by the Social Security Amendments of 1972 and is incorporated in Title 16 of the Social Security Act The program is administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA) and began operations in 1974.
Individuals or their helpers may start the application for SSI benefits by completing a short form on SSA’s website. SSA staff will schedule an appointment for the individual or helper within 1–2 weeks and complete the process.
SSI was created to replace federal-state adult assistance programs that served the same purpose, but were administered by the state agencies and received criticism for lacking consistent eligibility criteria. The restructuring of these programs was intended to standardize the eligibility requirements and level of benefits. Although administered by SSA, SSI is funded from the U.S. Treasury general funds, not the SS Trust Fund. As of July 2022, the program provides benefits to approximately five million Americans.

The Social Security Administration gives, and the Social Security Administration takes away — at least when it comes to beneficiaries who qualify for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments.
July is one of the months when the agency doesn’t issue an SSI check. Because of a quirk in the payment schedule, SSI beneficiaries get two payments in March, June, September and December, while no payments are deposited in January, April, July and October.
