Eligibility
To be eligible for the $134 day Social Security payment, recipients generally need to meet the following criteria:
- Current Social Security Beneficiary: You must already be receiving Social Security benefits, such as retirement, disability (SSDI), or survivor benefits.
- Income Limits: There may be specific income limits or thresholds that determine eligibility. Recipients with higher incomes might not qualify for the full amount.
- Age Requirement: Typically, recipients must be at least 62 years old to receive Social Security retirement benefits, but younger individuals may qualify if they are receiving disability benefits.
Payment Amount
The $134 amount is determined based on the cost of living adjustment (COLA) and other factors that influence Social Security payments. This increase is designed to help beneficiaries keep up with inflation and rising costs. The exact amount each recipient will receive may vary depending on their current benefit amount and specific circumstances.
