I am divorced after 24 years of marriage. I am 57 years old and engaged to be married. My ex-husband makes significantly more than I do. If I do not get married, I know I can collect my ex-husband's SS. My question is: What happens if I get married after I start collecting my ex-husband's SS? Can I still collect at his rate or does it revert back to what my rate would be?

Hi,

Assuming that your ex is still living when you remarry, and unless your new husband is receiving a certain type of Social Security benefit when you marry (https://secure.ssa.gov/apps10/poms.nsf/lnx/0300202045), your divorced spousal benefits would terminate effective with the month of your new marriage.

Best, Jerry
