The amounts of Social Security Disability benefits in the United States are different for each user. This means that each citizen has a different benefit and, therefore, the increase in that benefit is different as well. The annual increase is made through the COLA and all citizens get the same percentage.
Among those benefits we find the minimum check for the Disability benefit. This minimum check will not be the same as of January 2024. Even so, it is also true that it is very rare to see a U.S. citizen collect the SSDI minimum check. The usual is for the check to be larger than the minimum that the Administration sends out.
But if you are thinking about applying for a Social Security disability payment in the coming year 2024 you should know that the payment will have an increase of 3.2%. This percentage will increase in each and every retirement payment. Thus, any United States citizen who has a payment will be able to get a different maximum check in the following year.
WHAT WILL THE MINIMUM DISABILITY BENEFIT PAYMENT BE IN 2024?
Until 2023 the minimum Social Security disability payment was around $100. However, it is almost impossible for a citizen to get such a benefit. The usual thing to do in these cases is to get a larger check, so we should expect to get a larger payment when we apply for the check.

Regardless of how much we get in SSDI retirement, the minimum will be about $103.2. While this isn’t a huge check, we’ve already mentioned that it’s rare for people to receive a payment like this.
The average Social Security benefit payment is $1,800 per month. This value will increase by 3.2% in the coming year 2024, so we will not get the average benefit from these features, but it will be approximately $1,857.
But this will not be the only change, as Social Security will send different payments to beneficiaries of all types of benefits. Therefore, if we expect to receive a check, we will have to wait for the exact number, but we may already know the approximation.
MAXIMUM SOCIAL SECURITY CHECK IN 2024
Just as the minimum disability benefit check will increase thanks to COLA, so will all other benefits. Thus, retirees with a check will be able to enjoy a larger payment starting in January 2024.
Disability benefit recipients could reach $3,743 by next year 2024. This does not mean that all citizens will get this amount. What it does mean is that we will get an increase, whatever our current payment is.
On the other hand, the maximum age retirement check will be approximately $4,700. This will be because the maximum check of $4,555 from Social Security in 2023 will have the 3.2% increase implemented starting in January.
