Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Sorry to ask but many sites I look at make it seem confusing. We were both born after Jan 1954. My understanding for our situation:
- DW is not eligible for a spousal benefit until I file at age 70, she’ll be 68.
- At that time she’ll be eligible for half my FRA benefit (not half my age 70 amount) - without impacting her own earned benefit.
- When she turns 70, she’s eligible for her own (35+ years) earned benefit OR continuing with half my FRA amount - whichever is greater.
