According to a report of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities the Budget Reconciliation bill recently passed by the House of Representatives provides that:
... any SSI recipient owed more than three months of back benefits would have to receive these benefits in installments, and the initial installment payment would be made smaller. The first installment would cover only three months of benefits. The second installment paid six months after the first payment would cover no more than another three months of benefits. The final payment made a full year after the individual was found eligible for SSI benefits would cover all remaining amounts owed to the recipient.
