SOCIAL SECURITY PAY INCREASE FOR 2025

 Social Security benefits will increase by 2.5 percent or an average of about $48 per month in 2025.

 The Social Security Administration announced the COLA increase on October 10, 2024 which will take effect in January, 2025.

The Part B Medicare premium (the part you pay for Medicare) also increased from $174.20 for most beneficiaries to $185 per month.

I find it interesting that the government increased the Medicare premium 5.9 percent for 2025 but only gave recipients a 2.5 percent increase in benefits.

Only an approved medical source, such as a medical doctor of licensedf clinical psychologist, can certify that you meet a listing.   Note:  Most claimants who qualify for benefits will not meet a Listing.  Before you try to use this approach, become familiar with the Listings in Social Security's Blue Book at ...

THE 5-STEP SEQUENTIAL PROCESS FOR DISABILITYU

Social Security uses a sequential 5-Step process to decide who is disabled. "Sequential" means that each step must be considered in order.  At each step, you may be approved or denied.  Here are the Steps: STEP 1:  Are you now gainfully employed?   If Yes, you are denied and the case closes.  If No, move to Step 2. STEP 2:  Do you have a qualifying severe impairment? If No, you are denied and the case closes.  If Yes, move to Step 3. STEP 3:  Do you meet one of Social Security's Listings? If Yes, you are approved and the process closes.  If No, move to Step 4. STEP 4:  Can you perform any of your past relevant work? If Yes, you are denied and the process closes.  If No, move to Step 5. STEP 5:  Are you able to perform any other job which exists in "significant numbers" in the U.S. economy?
