Those who have undergone a supplemental security income check will undergo two checks in August.
Double delivery is the result of the Social Security Agency calendar. Payments are usually issued on the first day of the month, with August payments scheduled for Friday, August 1st.
However, as in September (September 1 is Labor Day), if the beginning of the month lands on weekends or holidays, payments will be made earlier. Therefore, payments for September will be sent on August 29th, the last business day of the month.
According to the SSA calendar, SSI recipients received payments on May 1st and May 30th on May 1st and May 30th.

What is SSI?
Supplementary Security Income (SSI) provides benefits to people with limited income or resources, those over the age of 65, or those with blind or qualified disabilities. According to the Social Security Administration website, eligible children with disabilities can also obtain an SSI. Currently, around 7.4 million Americans receive monthly SSI payments.
Adults who earn more than $2,019 from their work each month are not usually eligible for an SSI. Approximately a third of SSI recipients also benefit from Social Security.
Anyone who may be eligible for an SSI can call online, directly at your local Social Security Agency, or by calling 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) local time from 8am to 7pm local time during work week.
