I won't keep you in suspense: Social Security checks will be 2.8% bigger in 2019. That's great news for retirees, but there are some important things every Social Security recipient needs to consider about the increase.

Every year, Social Security's number-crunchers evaluate the annual change in prices for a variety of goods and services using the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W).
It's Official! Social Security Recipients Are Getting A Big Raise In 2019
