Proposed Provision: For all individuals becoming eligible for OASDI benefits in 2009 and later, use a modified primary insurance amount (PIA) formula. The modified formula would increase the first bend point to $800 in 2009. Also, a new bend point would be placed between the reset first bend point and the current-law second bend point. The new bend point would be equal to the reset first bend point plus 75 percent of the difference between the bend points. The PIA formula factor between the new bend point and the upper bend point would be lowered from 32% to 20%. The PIA formula factor above the upper bend point would be lowered from 15% to 10%.
