Just google it. Cola's have been dormant for 2 years.
By the way, SS stops the minute they find out you no longer qualify to collect.
Now another thing to remember, budget a two month delay in my SS benefit when I sign up.

the obama admin announced there will be NO COLA for the next 3 years. And, there is no COLA attached to Medicare. When you get your bill for a prescription that your part was $16, next year it will increase noticeably. I don't have the figure on how much. Then again, this country has had no budget since 2008 either !
