Florida Divorce FAQ, Fort Lauderdale CPA

"I have been married for 40 years; my career was raising the kids and taking care of my husband. My attorney mentioned that I would be entitled to Social Security benefits via my ex-husband's record. How does this work?"
Your attorney is correct in certain circumstances. If your ex-spouse is currently collecting Social Security, you may qualify for benefits. To qualify, you must meet the following criteria: a) You had been married for at least ten years b) You must be at least 62 years old c) You must be currently unmarried and ineligible for an equal or higher benefit on your own Social Security record or on someone else's record. If you continue to work while receiving benefits, the same earnings limits apply to you as would apply to your ex-spouse. The amount of benefits that you receive will have no effect on your ex-spouse's benefits or other benefits they may receive. About the author of this Florida Divorce FAQ:
