Will My Wife Be Subject To The Windfall Elimination Provision?
My wife is a German citizen who worked as a Doctor in Germany in the 1980's and has contributed and still contributes monthly to the German Doctors' Pension, Badem-Wuerttemburgische Versorgungsanstalt fuer Aertzte. We both reside in the US and she is now a US citizen, eligible for Social Security at age 62 in 3 years, having worked 24 years in the US. Only a handful of hear earnings years in the US would be considered substantial earnings years by Social Security.
