The Social Security Administration (SSA) has confirmed the dates and maximum amounts for Social Security payments in February 2025. This provides stability and clear guidance for beneficiaries. Payments will be based on birth dates.
Those born between the 1st and 10th of the month will receive payments on February 12. Payments for those born between the 11th and 20th will be on February 19. And those born between the 21st and 31st will receive payments on February 26.
Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients will get their payment on January 31, 2025. This is because February 1st falls on a weekend.
Payment dates based on birth dates
The maximum Social Security retirement benefits in 2025 depend on the age of retirement. Those retiring at full retirement age in 2025 can receive up to $4,018 per month. For those retiring at 62 in 2025, the maximum is $2,831 monthly.
And those delaying retirement until 70 in 2025 can get up to $5,108 per month. These amounts include a 2.5% Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for 2025. The increase helps beneficiaries keep up with inflation.
It will affect over 72.5 million Americans receiving Social Security and SSI payments. The 2025 monthly maximum federal SSI amounts are:
– $967 for an eligible individual
– $1,450 for an eligible couple
– $484 for an essential person
The SSA encourages people to use their online services. This provides quick and convenient access to benefit information and payment schedule updates.
