First round of February Social Security payments goes out in five days
the article explains the February Social Security payments for retirees, noting that the first round will be issued in five days and is capped at $5,108 per month. Payments are scheduled in three rounds: for those born on or before the 10th, Feb.11; born between the 11th and 20th, Feb. 18; and born on or after the 21st, Feb. 25. Eligibility begins at age 62. The monthly amount depends on retirement age and years of contributions; for example, a 62-year-old could receive up to $2,831 per month, while a 70-year-old could receive up to $5,108 per month. Beneficiaries can use the SSA’s calculator for a personalized estimate. Social Security is financed by payroll taxes paid by employers and employees.Without congressional action, payments are expected to shrink, and a solvency issue could arise as early as 2034, perhaps preventing full benefits from being issued.

Payments largely depend on a recipient’s retirement age. A beneficiary retiring at the youngest age, 62, could receive up to $2,831 per month, while a 70-year-old retiree could receive up to $5,108 per month, according to the Social Security Administration.

How is it financed?
Social Security is financed by a payroll tax paid for by employers and employees.
Social Security payment amounts are set to shrink unless Congress takes action to prevent it. Analysts estimate the SSA will no longer be able to issue full payments as early as 2034, due to a rising number of retirees and a shrinking workforce.
