Did Social Security have a COLA in 2010?

Is there a raise for disabled veterans in 2010?
No, since increases in benefits are tied to the cost-of-living. Since there was no cost-of-living adjustment declared for 2010, there is no increase.
Will there be an increase in Social Security benefits in the next two years?
There's no way to predict whether there will be an increase in Social Security benefits over the next two years. We already know 2011 checks will be paid at the same rate as in 2009, when the SSA issued a 5.8% increase. This is the first time since 1975 that rates have remained unchanged two consecutive years, so there's a good chance there will be some type of cost of living adjustment (COLA) in 2012, but this is far from a safe bet.
