The amount is not the same for everyone. By 2026, SSI’s monthly federal maximum is $994 for one person and $1,491 for an eligible couple. The actual amount depends on income, housing conditions and other factors.
Some states add a supplement to the federal benefit. For that reason, the federal maximum should not be interpreted as the exact amount that will appear on all accounts. To organize the spending of October, it is important to consult both the date and the amount corresponding to the individual case.
