If you get married will your social security change?

No. Benefits do not stop when you get married. Also, you both continue to receive your check each month. In the event of death of one spouse, the surviving spouse will receive the greater of the two amounts for the rest of their life. For example, if a husband passes away and his social security income was higher than his wife each month, she will then receive a check for that amount instead.
