The spouse of a retired or disabled worker can apply for spousal benefits at age 62, but their monthly benefit payments will be reduced. ​

A spouse can receive the equivalent of 50% of their partner’s retirement or SSD benefits, provided they wait until reaching full retirement age to apply for them. Applying at age 62 could result in spousal benefits of as little as 32.5% of the partner’s benefits.​

The disability team at The Keener Law Firm draws on its years of experience to advise clients on navigating SSA benefits programs. ​

➡️ Temporary or intermittent symptoms that do not prove a condition expected to last for at least 12 months.​
➡️ Lack of medical evidence of symptoms, such as fatigue, that prove an inability to do work activities.​
