An ex wife who never remarried is able to collect social security benefits from an ex husband who has died. This is true even if the ex husband took his own life as long as he paid into the system.

Would I be able to collect on my first husband's social security when I reach retirement age we were married for eighteen years he remarried in 1993 and I plan to remarry next year?
No, your social security entitlements are individual to you, you can only benefit from your husbands if he dies while you are married. If you had any children with your first husband you may be entitled to security points while you were looking after them, you need to check up on this. (By the way this is relevant to the UK only)

In general, if you remarry before the age of 60, you cannot receive your deceased husband's Social Security benefits. However, if you remarry after the age of 60 (or after 50 if disabled), you may be eligible to receive benefits based on your deceased husband's work record.
How much can a divorced women draw on her husbands social security if they were married 46 years?
A divorced woman may be entitled to receive up to 50% of her ex-husband's Social Security benefit, provided she is unmarried and her ex-husband's benefit is higher than what she would receive on her own. If they were married for 46 years, she may be eligible for spousal benefits even if her ex-husband has remarried, as long as she meets certain requirements. It's recommended to consult with the Social Security Administration for specific details regarding individual circumstances.

Can a 72 yr old woman collect social security from the husband that abondoned her years ago they never divorced and she never remarried?
You need to check the eligibility rules for Social Security to be sure, but I think you have to have been married to the guy when he was working and contributing to SS for at least 10 years. Then you are eligible to receive a percentage of his benefits on his death. There are also disability benefits of his that you can tap. It would be worth a call to your Social Security office. If you are still legally married, you are still the benefiting spouse. But don't assume anything. Make sure the records clearly indicate that you will benefit, and do what you can to correct them if they do not. Make sure they know who you are and where you are so they know where to send your share (when your dear husband departs us!)
