Ex-Spouses Can Claim Social Security, No Impact on You

from The Daily News Now! Business

Ex-spouses can claim Social Security spousal benefits from your work record without affecting your benefits. Multiple exes can do this simultaneously, and you wont be notified. Your current spouses claim remains unaffected. To qualify, the ex needs a ten-year marriage, be divorced for two years, unmarried, at least sixty-two, and their claim must be higher than solo benefits. They can receive up to fifty percent of your full retirement age amount. Your benefits remain secure, so focus on your own retirement plan.
