Social Security Beneficiaries Could Receive Another Mega COLA Next Year
Overview
Social Security beneficiaries have received some extra-large cost-of-living adjustments in recent years, and next year could be another big one. After inflation spiked in 2021 and 2022, retirees and other Social Security beneficiaries received 5.9% and 8.7% adjustments to their monthly payments.
The COLA has trended downward since. Last year's 2.8% COLA looked relatively tame compared to the bumps retirees received earlier this decade.
