There are just six days before the second wave of Social Security retirement payments, worth up to $4,194, are sent out to recipients.
The retirement benefits from the Social Security Administration are issued to recipients in waves of three and are always issued beginning on the second Wednesday of a month for the first wave, concluding with the third payment on the fourth Wednesday of that month. Payments scheduled to go out on Jan. 18 will be for recipients born between the 11st and 20th of a month, according to the administration's calendar.
The exact amount that recipients will receive from these checks will vary based on several factors, such as when a recipient chooses to retire and start receiving Social Security benefits. A person must have retired when they were 70 to receive the highest payment of $4,194. Meanwhile, recipients who retired at 67 will receive a maximum check of $3,345, and anyone who retired at 62 will get up to $2,364 per month, according to the SSA.The first round of payments was already issued on Jan.
Regular Social Security payments are based on earnings that a recipient makes throughout their lifetime and do not have any limits based on income or resources. The retirement payments from the SSA are different from other payments distributed by the agency, such as disability insurance or Supplemental Security Income, the latter of which already had its January payments on Dec. 30, 2022, and is scheduled to have its next payment on Feb. 1.
