CNS News– In ten days, the first set of retirees will receive their Social Security payments for March. The top earners who retire at 70 can receive up to $4,873 in this payment. The Social Security Administration has scheduled the payment for retirees born on or between the first and tenth of the month to be distributed on March 13, according to their calendar.
One of two later disbursements, on March 20 or March 27, will be made to individuals whose birth dates are on or after the eleventh of the month. Every recipient gets one paycheck, but the exact week it arrives depends on their birth month.
There are a lot of variables that determine how much a person can get out of Social Security, the most important of which is their age when they retire, but other factors include how much they paid over the years and how many years they paid in total.
A maximum of $4,873 per month is available to seniors who retire at the age of 70. The Social Security Administration reports that the maximum monthly benefit for individuals who retire at the full retirement age of 67 is $3,822. Those who choose to retire at the youngest age of 62 are limited to receiving a maximum of $2,710 per month.
