These seven things could be costly for women
If your spouse’s wage history is significantly higher than your own, consider claiming spousal benefits to receive up to half of your spouse’s primary insurance amount after they begin
claiming their own benefits. But if your spouse plans to wait until age 70 to claim their benefit, your ability to claim spousal benefits must also wait. You can claim your own benefits
at 62 and once your spouse claims their benefit, you will be eligible for a spousal adjustment. But the timing of your filing will determine how much of the spousal benefit you will
receive. Learn more. <https://www.mmsend50.com/link.cfm?r=dK5itgU3QMX7KWwJXovkzw~~&pe=dUKAP3-jPjAf0inGwOFPhyoe_1xDCcptWmOyCnodT4IEO_P90hX-A65O7fGCGLjJo2PsZB52Lws1TJMEiJZtiw~~&t=jiW62lQFOOK3KikvQO5-Y
