In this video, we break down the full January 2026 Social Security payment schedule, including exact deposit dates for SSI, retirement, SSDI, and survivor benefits. You’ll learn why some SSI payments arrive early, why some people will see two SSI payments close together, and how the calendar and federal holidays affect your money.

We also explain what the 2026 cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) really means, how much the average increase is, and why Medicare Part B premiums may reduce the amount you actually see in your check. This update covers who gets paid on January 2nd, January 14th, January 21st, and January 28th, plus what to expect if you receive benefits based on your birthday or if you started benefits before May 1997.

Beyond payment dates, we discuss budgeting challenges, fraud prevention changes, direct deposit timing, SSI payment traps to avoid, and what’s happening with Social Security staffing, online services, and long-term funding concerns. If you rely on Social Security or SSI, this is information you don’t want to miss as we head into the new year.
