    Since my husband was in the Air Force with an honorable discharge, and I believe you said that if you were in the military, you would get another $300 quarterly. But we didn't know this when we filed for his SSDI and so it wasn't included. Therefore, my survival benefits were based on his record without that bonus. Is there any way I can tell them about this and possibly have my survivor's benefits re-figured? Thanks.

    Thank you for all you do! At about 27:10, you suggest a person set up an account and check that Social Security has recorded the earnings correctly. As one completes paperwork to collect, one cannot proceed without agreeing that the earnings numbers are right. Maybe the worker should have been first asked this about 55 years earlier!

    Survivor benefits can be more now then yours at your full retirement age 67 choose wisely especially if you need the $. You can also collect survivors benefits at 60. My friend makes more at 62 on her survivors Benefits at 62 then she would make on her own at 70. She needed the money she took it, made a huge difference in her life now, her husband was a high income Earner she worked but not a high income earner.

Should he just wait to see after Trump is sworn in and see what changes will be made or go ahead now?

      Actually they will continue to increase an additional 8% per year after your full retirement age, so if you wait until you’re 70 you’ll get an additional 24% (but you will have missed out on the earlier payments). That’s why Dr Ed says no decision is right for everyone.😊

    I turn 65 in Jan 2025. My spouse turns 62 in August of 2025. If I file at 65, will her max survivor benefit be stuck at the "65" level or can she wait until she's 67 to file to get my full FRA amount, or will she be stuck with the "65" level since that's when I filed for my own? I think I'll file at FRA at 67, so my wife can collect my full FRA when I die. But does she need to wait until she's 67 to file to get my FRA survivor benefit amount? Also, if I file at 70 and die, does she get my FRA amount or delayed amount as survivor benefit?

    • @carolinecollins2441
      @carolinecollins2441 4 дні тому +1

      Your spouse is eligible for what you were receiving when you passed- if you wait until 70, spouse gets that benefit amount (including the delayed retirement credits). Or, if you weren't yet taking benefits, your spouse is eligible for what you were eligible to receive on your date of death. If spouse isn't full survivor retirement age when survivor benefits start, the amount will be reduced for their starting age.

      This means that the other person is making payments into social security under your number, but because SS knows it’s not you they will just put that extra money (that the other person is contributing) into the social security trust fund since the person using your number won’t be able to collect it. It doesn’t benefit you directly, but it benefits everyone who does collect social security benefits.
