No. There really is no such thing as "unused" benefits. If a person pays FICA (Social Security and Medicare) taxes but dies before he or she can collect benefits, his or her widow or widower and minor children, or adult children disabled before age 22 (if applicable) can collect monthly checks for survivors' benefits.
Able-bodied adult children or those who became disabled after age 22 cannot collect benefits from their mother's Social Security (FICA) contributions. The unpaid amount remains in the Social Security trust fund.

No. Only those who have worked can get benefits.
You collect disability only if you show that you are unable to perform work, not that you worked as long as you have. If you worked eight years and there are justifiable reasons for quitting, as determined by your state's employment security office then you might be eligible for unemployment benefits. This has nothing to do with the Social Security you are presently receiving.
Individuals who have worked in both the public sector in New York State and in jobs covered by Social Security may be eligible to collect both a New York State pension and Social Security benefits. It depends on their specific work history and contributions to each system.
The age for retirement varies depending on the amount of time you have worked. For a list of Social Security benefit requirements go her to the governments social security website found at www.ssa.gov.
No. Each teacher pays into a retirement system and law prevents them getting full social security even if they have worked other jobs and earned it.
Yes if he has worked and paid into social security. Do not wait. Call the social security office in your state and find out. Understand, that you cannot collect your social security and your husbands at the same time. They will explain it to you when you call.

Social Security is automatically taken out of a paycheck. You have no choice if you work and are not disabled. Before being able to qualify for getting any benefits, you have to have worked a specific amount of quarters that you contributed to the fund.
You can generally still collect unemployment while collecting social security, unless it is social security disability...even then you still might be able to. I worked for the Unemployment Office & just an FYI, they do not know if you are on social security and are unable to check, so if you do not say anything, they will never know.
It depends on many factors. I worked for the unemployment office and if you tell them you are receiving money from social security, they will put your file on hold and go through adjudication, which can take up to 6 weeks. They do not have the capabilities of checking to see if you are on social security, so the best policy is to not say anything... =)

I have author in my right keen to were i can't set for long period of time or stand either i get very bad pain in my knee and it also hurts at night sometime it will wake me up so can I still get Social Security or not
Some people have to sue for disability. Social Security has disability and some jobs have it. If you have not worked long enough you might need to file for medicaid.
