Social Security payments<\/strong> are generally deposited on the second, third, or fourth Wednesday in March. While some retirees aged 62 or older got benefits on March 3 because they began receiving retirement benefits before May 1997 or because they are on SSI too, others will get it on March 26, 2025.<\/p>\n

March 26 will be the day when Social Security<\/strong> delivers the last payment for retirees aged 62 or older. Then, there will be new monthly payments<\/strong> but in April. As of January 2025, the Administration stated that on average, retired workers get about $1,978.<\/p>\n

Who will collect a Social Security payment on the 26th?<\/h2>\n

To receive a monthly payment<\/strong> on March 26, 2025, there are a few requirements you must meet. Check if you qualify:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • you started getting Social Security<\/strong> after April 30, 1997<\/li>\n
  • you are not receiving SSI benefits<\/li>\n
  • you were born from the 21st to the 31st<\/li>\n
  • you filed<\/li>\n
  • your application was approved by SSA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    If you have not filed yet, you should know that filing at 62 is possible. However, it reduces your payment<\/strong> amount. Those who file at 62 get a 30% reduction. On the contrary, if you apply for benefits at 70, you will benefit<\/strong> from delayed credits.<\/p>\n

    Who could receive $1,343 from Social Security?<\/h2>\n

    As of June 2024, the average payment<\/strong> was $1,311<\/strong>. Thanks to the COLA increase for 2025<\/strong>, benefits are 2.5% higher. So, on average 62-year-olds can get about $1,343.<\/p>\n

    So, if you are 62 and you get an average payment, $1,343<\/strong> could be your payment amount on March 26, 2025. Social Security can deliver payments of up to $5,108.<\/p>\n

    Indeed, this payment is just for those who have managed to earn the contribution and benefit base for decades. Thus, it is unlikely many retirees<\/strong> get so much money.<\/p>\n

    The current maximum amounts will remain the same throughout 2025. In fact, it will not be until January 2026 when retirees aged 62 or older may benefit from a new COLA. The latest projection from the Senior Citizens League says the 2026 COLA<\/strong> could be about 2.2%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
