Dear Liz: Due to capital gains on the sale of a property, my monthly Social Security check is impacted by IRMAA, the income-related monthly adjustment amount for Medicare. Therefore not only do I not receive the recent cost-of-living increase, but my benefit substantially decreased. My question is: After a year will my monthly benefit go back to my most recent benefit, or to the increased amount I would have received without the IRMAA deduction? If the former, it seems like I lose forever.
Answer: You don’t lose forever, fortunately.
You did receive the most recent inflation increase in your Social Security benefit, but it was more than offset by the increase in your Medicare premiums. Medicare premiums are based on your income two years previously, so this year’s IRMAA was based on your tax returns from 2022. If your income went back to normal last year, then the IRMAA surcharge you’re experiencing should disappear next year.
