I received an email on Friday saying I had a message in My Social Security account. It was the info for my new monthly payment...haven't received any letter yet

We recevied ours the other day. If you don't have it why not look at your SS account? You could just take 2.5% of your total SS before your Medicare payment deduction to figure it out.

How did Medicare Part B go up $30. It went from $174.70 to $185?

Haven't received any info yet, but if it's only an extra $10, that means I can buy 2 pints of Haagen-Dazs, and that makes me very happy.

@LavernLuvsShoes 

So you only get $400 per month for SS?

My point was that whatever the amount of the increase, I'll be happy for it.

(The $10 that I mentioned has nothing to do with how much my SS check is.)

I just hope it covers the raise in Part B as it usually does every year.

I will also get a smaller check this year by a few dollars. Insurance took away the raise.

Got mine a week ago and I'll be getting less in 2025.  Had an income boost so that affected Medicare.  I knew it was coming, so no surprises.  Such is life.

We experienced the income "boost" this year.  It did take us by surprise 😳  

To answer the OP's question, we have not received the benefit letters yet.  I am also locked out of the SS account and need to call but I haven't had the patience yet 😏

I got a letter last week.
