Widows are eligible to begin drawing retirement benefits on their late husband's earnings record at age 60 if they have not remarried before that time. Disabled widows are eligible at 50.
A widow may draw survivors' benefits at any age if she is raising the decedent's dependent minor children who are under age 16. The children should also qualify for separate Survivor benefits.

Is your officially legal name on your social security card or your drivers license because my social security card has my first married name I never changed it when I married again.?
What the deal is, my social security card has my first husbands name on it and my drivers license has my second husbands name on it. I never changed to my second husband's name with social security. Now, my second husband and I are divorcing and I want to change it back to my first husband's name, like is on my social security card, because my first husband and I are dating and plan on remarrying. HELP! At work, I go by my second husband's name, but the IRS and Social Security still have me as my first married name. What should I do? I live in Louisiana.
