2027 Social Security COLAs May Reach a Level Not Seen in 4 Years
Seniors could be in for a large COLA next year -- and that's not necessarily a good thing.
Overview
Retirees who collect Social Security benefits are almost certainly going to get a raise next year. While seniors see an increase in benefits most years, this is not necessarily guaranteed. In 2027, though, retirees are not only on track for a benefits bump but will likely see one of the biggest raises in four years.
The raise comes courtesy of the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), and while it may seem like good news for retirees to get much bigger checks, that's actually not necessarily the case.
