Hi there, I am enquiring about benefits for my spouse in retirement
You may be able to get spouse's retirement benefits even if you never worked under Social Security. You may qualify for these benefits if you are at least  years of age and your spouse is receiving retirement of disability benefits. You may also qualify for Medicare at the age of 65
What happens with spouse's benefits if I am divorced?
If you are divorced, you may still qualify for benefits on your ex-spouse's record

How do I know how much I will receive in spouse's benefits?
Will you be applying for your own retirement benefits and for benefits as a spouse?
No, not at this time
Do you know if your benefits as a spouse will be higher than your own retirement benefits?
Yes, my benefits as a spouse will be higher
In this case, you will receive a combination of benefits that will equal the higher spouse benefit
