Millions of Americans are bracing for another shift in their monthly Social Security checks as 2025 approaches, but this time the increase feels different.
The upcoming 3.2% Cost-of-Living Adjustment offers modest but meaningful relief for Social Security recipients facing higher prices for everyday essentials. While average retired workers may see roughly $50 more per month
and disability, survivor, and SSI beneficiaries also receive increases, it is important to remember these figures are estimates. Actual benefit amounts will vary based on your individual earnings history, claiming age, and specific program eligibility criteria.
