I am 71 and retired early (55) after I sold my business to help with childcare for our daughters preschool children. My wife is 67 and has not applied for SS since we do not need the income and want to max out her benefit and wait for her to turn 70. Our income comes from investments and a couple of rentals as my SS is not that high since I took it at 62,she currently gets a pension from her job. My question is if I pass away before she turns 70 can she just receive my benefit and wait until she is 70 to get her higher one or must choose which one at my time of death. Thanks, Curt
