At full retirment age 66 can you and your husand collect own separate benefits check from social security?

Yes, if you both earned enough credits to qualify for Social Security, then you can each collect your own benefits. To qualify for Social Security retirement benefits, you must have earned 40 credits (approximately 10 years of work). You can actually collect your own benefit as early as age 62, but you won't receive your full benefit until you reach your full retirement age. Once you are at your full retirement age, you can choose to collect either your own benefit, or the spousal benefit, whichever is higher.


What percentage of your social security will your wife be able to receive?

The amount of Social Security check that your wife/husband can collect based on your record depends on the age that he/she applies. At full retirement age, which is 66 for most folks retiring now, your spouse will receive half of your benefits. This amount will be less if your wife/husband starts collecting spousal benefits between ages 62 and prior to her/his full retirement age of 66. It is important to mention here that your spouse's benefit check will not include any delayed retirement credits that you have accrued. Also if your spouse will receive a pension that is not covered by Social Security, her/his benefit amount may be reduced.
