The amount of money recipients get from the payment depends on their retirement age. The highest payment of up to $4,555 per month goes to people who retired at 70. Recipients who retired at 67 receive a maximum check of $3,627, and anyone who retired at 62 gets up to $2,572, according to the SSA.

The first round of payments was for people born between the 1st and 10th of a month, and it went out to recipients on Wednesday. The final round will go out on March 22, the fourth Wednesday of March. It will be for people born between the 21st and 31st of a month.

The amount of money retirees receive in Social Security is subject to change, and it could decrease if Congress does not determine how the program will be funded in the future. Discussions on Social Security have been ongoing in Congress for years, but most recently, a pair of bipartisan senators have proposed raising the retirement age to 70.

Currently, the retirement age is 67, but workers can take early retirement at 62 or delay retirement until they are 70.
