Hello Larry, I was married for 23 years, divorced, received nothing from my husband and I continued to raise my children on my own till they moved from home. I continued to work till 58. Moved in with my daughter because she wanted me to live with her and husband in Japan.

My ex husband whom I was married to for 13 years draws 2100 disability social security and I’m only going to draw 800 how much can I receive from ex husband I’m 62

Dear Larry,
I have a question I hope you can answer. I married about 4 years ago. My spouse and I reached our FRA in late 2020 and I filed for SS based on my record. My spouse filed for spousal benefits on my record. My question is, will my spouse lose her spousal benefits if we get a divorce now? Does the 10-year rule apply if you're already collecting spousal benefits when you get divorced? Thanks, Johnny

My ex wife works for the state of ohio, they have there own retirement plan, with that she can’t claim social security benefits of her own , can she claim social security benefits to n my social security? We were married 18 yrs been divorced 17 yrs

I'm 65 years old and newly divorced after 18 years of marriage. My ex is also 65, and my PIA is less than half of his. Do I need to wait two years until I'm eligible to apply for ex-spouse benefits? If I apply for benefits now, will I only receive benefits based on my own wage history? If so, then when I become eligible for the divorced spousal benefit in two years when I'm 67, will SSA automatically increase my benefit to 50% of my ex's PIA, or do I need to apply for that?

I was married fir 11 years to my first husband and 16 years to my 2nd husband. At this tim I do not qualify for my own SS. How do I choose which one to file on? If one should pass away, will my benefit’s increase to his full amount. Also , how do I find out how much they are receiving now ? Thank you , sheri

Hi Larry.

Can you please help me with your social security advuce? Below are details and questions.

My name is Deanne. I will be 65 years old on December 16th. I was born in 1957.

During my 25 years of marriage, I was physically and verbally abused by my husband at that time. He was arrested on 1 occasion, he went to jail, he went to court and was found guilty.

Hi Larry, my ex husband has taken a Social security disability retirement from his job as an firefighter. I'm entitled to half of his pension/retirement. How does this affect me now since he's taken a early social security disability at age 57.
