I lived out of wedlock for 13 years with a man that belonged to the US Army. Can I collect any benefits for being his partner
Yes, up to 18 years retroactive.
If the marriage lasted at least ten years and the couple lived together for that entire time, the ex spouse may have a claim to a portion of the receipients benefits.
It means that if you kill yourself in the 1st 2 years of the policy, that you don't collect the benefits.

10 year's
No. You have to have a current work history.
The day you marry you are entitled to these benefits.
Both can collect social security benefits upon retirement under your benefit if your first wife was married to you for over ten years.

Yes, under certain circumstances. A widow or widower who is disabled may collect survivors' benefits as early as age 50; however, the widow(er) must be at least 60 years old to collect survivors' retirement benefits. If the widow(er) has not yet reached full retirement age (65 for people born before 1943; 66 for people born between 1943 and 1954), the benefit will be reduced. A spouse or divorced spouse of any age may collect survivors' benefits if caring for the deceased person's minor children who are under age 16. Ex-spouses are also eligible for survivors' benefits, using the guidelines above, if the marriage lasted at least ten years.
