On July 1, 2009, the benefit for an individual senior (age 65 or older) or person with a disability will be cut an additional amount from $870 per month to $850 per month. The benefit for a married couple will be cut from $1,524 per month to $1,489 per month. This is an additional 2.3% cutback below the May 2009 levels, or $20 for an aged/disabled individual and $35 for a married couple.
SSA will send notices in June, notifying recipients of the July 1 cuts.
