Frequently asked questions

How much is the Social Security COLA for 2027?

The 2027 cost-of-living adjustment is 3.6%. It starts with January 2027 Social Security payments, and SSI recipients see it in the payment that arrives on December 31, 2026.

What is the maximum SSI payment in 2027?

The federal SSI payment standard is $1,029 a month for an individual and $1,544 for an eligible couple. Other income can reduce it, and many states add a supplement.
