Social Security COLA 2025: Here's How Much Your Check Will Increase in January
With a little more than a month before the 2025 COLA kicks in, here's what you should know about the upcoming adjustment.
Social Security Retirees Just Got Bad News About the 2025 Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA)
Social Security's annual cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) are calculated based on how inflation changes in the third quarter, the three-month period from July through September. In this scenario, inflation is measured using a subset of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) known as the CPI-W.
Next year's 2.5% Social Security COLA isn't so bad when you consider this
But when we look back at the data, it becomes clear that a 2.5% Social Security COLA isn't so terrible. In fact, it's a lot more generous than some of the COLAs beneficiaries have seen in the past. In 2024, Social Security benefits rose by 3.2%. The year prior, they increased by 8.7%. And in 2022, a 5.9% COLA came through.
What cost-of-living adjustment increase in Social Security means
A 2.5% cost-of-living adjustment increase will mean an extra $50 a month for most Social Security and SSI recipients.
The 2025 Social Security COLA Was Announced Last Month. Here's What That Means for Retirees
But a 2.5% COLA for 2025 stings because it's the smallest one to arrive in years. At the start of 2024, seniors on Social Security saw their benefits increase by 3.2%. And the year prior, Social Security recipients got a record-breaking 8.7% COLA. So a raise of just 2.5% seems awfully meager by comparison.
