Hi, good afternoon. I've heard that is possible to get some social security benefits for your spouse. If that's true, could you tell me how i can be able to get those?
================
Sure, no problem at all. There are many ways to do that, and get the benefit, such as going Online, via Phone Call, going in person or even using U.S. Embassies or consulates if you're outside the U.S.
================
Wow, many ways indeed. That's something nice to hear.  Look, I have certain doubt. If was the case I was the one to get those benefits, my spouse's income wouldn't become affected, right?
That's correct. Your spouse retirement income won't be affected this benefits paid to you. As a matte of fact, the combination of both incomes could play a part in your spouse's decision to take those benefits earlier.
================
Oh, that's a relief, you know?. Last thing I would like to do is to causing her any trouble. Look, if i wanna know something else, like benefits for someone else, do you know where i have to look?
Do you mean benefits for your family?
Yes, for my family, mainly.
Well, it is possible for them to get benefits, even if yourself don't qualify for it. So, just go to our "Benefits for your family" section and look for the information there.
================
O.k, i'll do that. Say, when I apply, Do I have to fill another application for my spouse?
No need for that. If you are granted a qualification, your application will serve as request for spousal benefits too.
================
Ah, pretty neat. Appreciated. Look, just to be sure. Which age do I or my spouse to be for these benefits?
That would be at least 62 years of age, plus your spouse being receiving retirement or disability benefits.
