Stimulus Check this December 2023
The high inflation rate has affected millions of Americans across the country and are facing financial challenges. With this, the Social Security Administration said that millions of Americans will receive an increased amount of Supplemental Security Income.
In a published article in MARCA, this increase is due to the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) 2023. The Social Security Administration said that the COLA for 2024 will increase by 3.2 percent. This means that eligible recipients will receive extra cash this December 2023.
