The amount of money each recipient gets depends on their age at retirement. The highest payment of $4,555 per month goes to eligible recipients who retired at 70. People 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.Recipients could see a decrease in their payments if Congress does not determine how the program will be funded by 2037.
