Key drivers

  • Aged-65-plus SSI caseload has risen year over year
  • Early-2026 level drifted down from January to April before a small May rebound
  • Same-variant May-to-June 2025 change was positive but modest
  • No new benefit-level policy shock is assumed for June 2026

expected
July 31, 2026
rule
Resolve to the first published June 2026 value in SSA SSI Monthly Statistics Table 1, All Federally Administered Payments, Number of recipients, row Total, column Age 65 or older. SSA publishes whole recipient counts; convert to thousands by dividing by 1,000 and report to the same 0.001-thousand precision implied by whole recipients. Use the first official print only and ignore later revisions or returned-check adjustments after the first June 2026 table is posted. SSA's public schedule provides month-level monthly timing rather than a specific day; 2026-07-31 is the catalog latest expected resolution by-date for the June 2026 monthly publication, not a claimed exact release day.
