Only people who qualify for social security checks by being physically unable to work can receive them. And nobody can receive someone else's check. So unless she is supposed to get them due to a medical problem, no.

It depends what country you're in. Here in the UK - if one partner is working - and the other is claiming benefits... The amount of benefit paid is reduced on a sliding scale in relation to the wage the other is earning.

Can you get social security and unemployment benefits?

Yes, you can collect Social Security and unearned income at the same time. There is no limit to the amount of unearned income (from investments, pensions, rental income, etc.) that you can receive while collecting Social Security retirement benefits. You are limited to how much earned income you can have (from wages or salary) if you are collecting Social Security before you reach your full retirement age, but there is no limit to the amount of unearned income you can have.

Your wife earnings will NOT be counted as a part of your earnings for the social security earnings test.


At what age do you get benefits?

A person can start getting Social Security benefits at age 62. The longer a person waits the more Social Security pays. Because of additional income taxes on income from jobs, people with jobs normally wait until they are about 66 when the additional income tax caused because they are collecting social security stops before they start collecting Social Security. The additional income tax only applies to people with jobs. People with other retirement income do not need to pay it. So, people laid off at 62 without prospects of another job usually start collecting Social Security. People with good jobs hold off.
