The Social Social Security Administration determines the maximum amount of wages that are subject to Social Security Taxation. The statistics fluctuate year to year to account for inflation and are used by the Social Security Administration to calculate the maximum Social Security income. If you earn more than the maximum amount in a particular year, the Social Security Administration will only calculate benefits based on the maximum amount.

Payments will be handed out in three waves, according to the recipient’s birth date, to guarantee that everything runs well. On January 12, anybody born between the first and tenth of their birth month received their Social Security bonus. Recipients born between the 11th and the 20th of the month will receive their payout on the third Wednesday of the month, which is January 19. Finally, people born on or after the 21st of the month will get their benefits on the fourth Wednesday of the month. It’s the 26th of the month this month.
