Course Overview

Social Security is changing in ways that will affect millions of retirees and the professionals who guide them. From the upcoming 2026 cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) to new tax provisions under the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” the landscape is shifting fast. Are your clients ready for smaller-than-expected benefit increases once Medicare premiums are factored in? Do they know what the end of paper checks means for their financial routine? 

This CE course dives into key updates you need to know, including how COLA adjustments really impact net benefits, what the Treasury’s paper check phase-out means, and how new federal rules reshape Social Security taxation. You’ll also see how marginal tax rates can be used as planning tools to boost after-tax retirement income. Packed with strategies and client-ready insights, this session equips you to add value in every conversation.

Major Topics: 

  • 2026 COLA Adjustment Impact 
  • Paper Check Phase-Out

By the end, you’ll be ready to explain the changes clearly, provide practical planning support, and position yourself as the trusted advisor clients turn to during times of uncertainty. Stay ahead of the curve and use these updates to strengthen your practice while helping retirees protect their financial security.
