Would It Be Wise For Me To Sign Up Now To Get The COLA Increase For 2023?
I was waiting to sign up for SS until April 2023 when I reach full retirement age (66 and 4 months). Would it be wise to sign up now and get the cola increase for 2023?
Thank you for your consideration,
Nancy
Hi Nancy. You don't need to sign up now in order to get credit for the 2023 cost of living (COLA) increase. All Social Security cost of living (COLA) increases that occur after a person turns age 62 are added to their Social Security retirement benefit rate regardless of when they start drawing benefits.
