You would not be entitled to any of the SSI benefits. For a person to be eligible for any SS benefits of their partner, that person must be legally married to the receipient of such. The child might be entitled to survivor benefits upon the death of the SS beneficiary, but parentage would have to be established and the deceased would have to be qualified for regular SS retirement benefits or SSD not SSI.
Am i entitled to my wife's retirement?
It depends on the state you live in, how long you were married and if she had the retirement before you got married. Generally speaking, what you bring into a marriage, you take out. If your wife had a retirement plan before you married, the value of that plan at the time you were married belongs to her. During the course of the marriage, contributions to the plan and growth in the value of the plan might be subject to distribution, depending on the laws of your state. You may have a right to a percentage of the increase in value of her retirement account (only) during the time you were married. You are probably not entitled to a share in the total value of the account. And you shouldn't be.

Can military domestic partners get heath insurance?
Effective June 26, 2013, the same-sex legal spouse of an active-duty member of the US military is entitled to the same benefits as any other spouse, including health insurance. It is important to note that the benefits are available regardless of whether the state where the parties live recognizes their marriage or not. Prior to June 2013, the military had announced that it would grant health insurance benefits to same-sex partners of military personnel by October 2013, without explicitly stating that the partners needed to be married, although it is likely that benefits will now only be given to persons who are legally married, not to parties in a civil union or domestic partnership.

If you've been married for seven years are you entitled to half of your spouse's pension benefits?
yes No...not by default -you might have been married 10 years, but spent 9 of those years overseas, living away from your spouse working a $400,000 per annum job, while your spouse taught grade school for $34,000 per year and kept the kids. Do you think you'd get awarded 50% of a school teacher's pension in this case? Slim chance! ..Such is a very often misconception when dealing with the military especially. People think that just because you've been married 10 years that a spouse (usually the wife) *automatically* gets 50% of the man's retirement. This is furthest from the truth. What is true is that once married 10 years, the spouse (usually the wife) qualifies to have her court ordered portion of the retirement check (if anything) sent directly to HER... verses relying on her former husband to give up her share monthly as ordered by the court. You can be married 20 years, and the court award you nothing out of your spouse's retirement. It totally depends on the contributing factors of the divorce, details of the marriage, etc. You can be married 15 years and the court award you only 5% of your spouse's retirement. *Remember... just because you're "eligible" for something, doesn't meant that you'll get it awarded to you automatically in court.
