The Social Security COLA increase for 2025 is going into effect soon, and so is your boosted benefits check. Here's when you can expect it.

The Cost of Living Adjustment is rising in 2025, which will change the amount of money people will receive in their Social Security checks.

All Social Security beneficiaries are getting a 2.5% cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) next year -- or at least they are on paper. This will increase monthly benefit amounts for all recipients, including those claiming spousal Social Security.

We're a couple of days away from the new year, and that means the next Social Security checks will include the 2025 COLA increase.

Social Security recipients will see changes to their entitlements in the New Year, with the maximum benefit for 2025 at $4,018 per month.

Back in October, the Social Security Administration announced that the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for 2025 would be 2.5%. Most retirees feel that the 2.5% COLA falls short of keeping up with rising costs.

Social Security COLA increase goes into effect in just a few weeks. Here's what it means for your monthly check going forward.
