NextImg:Social Security update: Direct payment worth up to $4,555 goes out to millions in 10 days

Retirees can expect the first round of July's three Social Security payments, worth up to $4,555, in 10 days, according to the Social Security Administration's schedule.

The first payment will go out on July 12 to recipients born between the first and 10th of a month. The monthly payments are disbursed on the second, third, and fourth Wednesdays of each month.

Each retiree gets one paycheck every month, but the date recipients receive their installment depends on the day of the month they were born. The first checks go to recipients born between the first and 10th of a month, the second is for those born between the 11th and 20th of the month, and the third check goes out to those born after the 21st of a month.

The maximum amount of money each beneficiary receives differs depending on his or her age at retirement. Recipients who retire at 62 get monthly installments of up to $2,572, while those who retire at 67 receive a maximum benefit of $3,627. People who delay retirement until 70 get the highest maximum payment of up to $4,555 per month, according to the SSA.

Social Security recipients receive a cost-of-living adjustment every year based on the previous year's consumer price index for urban wage earners and clerical workers. However, that increase could be drastically lower than 2023's, with an increase of just 2.7% next year. In 2023, retirees saw an 8.7% increase.

Recipients could see a decrease in their payments in the future if Congress does not settle on funding for the program before the Social Security trust runs out. Money in the program's trust is expected to run out by 2033.

Discussions on the future of Social Security have occurred in Congress for years, and experts have warned that the program could be insolvent in 10 years if nothing is done.

The current age of retirement in the United States is 67. However, a recent proposal by House Republicans has suggested slowly raising the full age of retirement to 69 by 2033. But those looking to retire in the near future could also take an early retirement at 62, or they can wait as late as 70.
