Those born between the 11th and 20th will receive theirs on March 18. The first round went to people born on or before the 10th on March 11, and the third round will go out on March 25 to those born on or after the 21st. Eligibility begins at age 62. To maximize the check, consider retirement age, total contributions, and years paid into Social Security. Monthly amounts vary by retirement age: the earliest retirees could get as little as about $2,831 per month, while a 70-year-old could receive up to $5,108 per month, per the SSA. The SSA provides a calculator for a personalized estimate. Social Security is funded by payroll taxes shared by employers and employees. Without congressional action, benefits are set to shrink, and analysts warn the SSA may not be able to pay full benefits as early as 2034 due to a growing retiree population and a shrinking workforce<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2632,"featured_media":2579780,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Social-Security-mone-12-1.jpg?w=696","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[4848,3890,5398,69551,51510],"class_list":["post-2579779","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-benefits","tag-march","tag-payments","tag-social-security-2","tag-ssa"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Social-Security-mone-12-1.jpg?w=696","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2579779","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2632"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2579779"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2579779\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2579783,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2579779\/revisions\/2579783"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2579780"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2579779"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2579779"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2579779"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
