Senate leaders backed a five billion dollar increase in Social Security benefits and a 10 percent payment hike lifting the minimum to 70.40 dollars. Average monthly checks would rise to 118 dollars for individuals and 193 for couples, with Senate figures showing 136 and 223 respectively. The package adds 48 dollar monthly special payments for those over 72 with insufficient work history, increases the annual earnings threshold for benefits to 4400 dollars, and scales deductions to 1 for every 92 earned above 2400 dollars. Delays in payments are noted, with retroactive increases to January 1 and checks likely arriving in July, as changes are implemented by the Social Security Administration.
