Every little bit helps! Thanks

RapidRod:
Jeff, it says if there is a cost of living increase SSI and SSDI will receive it in January.

Gary85741:

Each year, SSDI is increased in tandem with cost-of-living.  Of course there's always a small fly in the ointment...your Part B medicare deduction (assuming you have it) likewise increases...so you have to deduct that increase to find your net increase.

Fortunately, I believe there is a law that your net benefit cannot decrease even if the Part B deduction outstrips the cost-of-living increase.

For 2007, the gross increase (before applying the Part B premium increase) is 3.3% I believe.
