It depends on the terms of the insurance plan. Benefits are not usually paid for suicides.

How does your wife get half of your social security?

At her full retirement age your wife is entitled to an amount equal to half of what you are entitled to receive at your full retirement age. (If you're not the same age that full retirement age may not be the same age in years for both of you as it rises from 65 to 68 in the years to come) Benefits your wife receives neither increase nor decrease your retirement benefit from social security. What she gets doesn't change what you get. Your benefit is increased by the delayed retirement credit of 8%/year for each year you delay taking benefits after your full retirement age until age 70, but your wife's available retirement benefit does not change. (Neither of you should delay starting Medicare since that usually incurs a penalty.)


What percentage of your social security will your wife be able to receive?

The amount of Social Security check that your wife/husband can collect based on your record depends on the age that he/she applies. At full retirement age, which is 66 for most folks retiring now, your spouse will receive half of your benefits. This amount will be less if your wife/husband starts collecting spousal benefits between ages 62 and prior to her/his full retirement age of 66. It is important to mention here that your spouse's benefit check will not include any delayed retirement credits that you have accrued. Also if your spouse will receive a pension that is not covered by Social Security, her/his benefit amount may be reduced.

Yes, a wife can claim half of her husband's Social Security benefits if she is at least 62 years old and her husband is eligible for Social Security benefits. This spousal benefit allows her to receive up to 50% of her husband's benefit amount, provided that he has filed for his benefits.

Can your wife draw Social Security retirement benefits if she has never worked?

Yes, if you have earned at least 40 work credits and apply for your own retirement benefits, your wife is eligible to draw an additional 50% in benefits based on your work record if she is at least 62 years old. An ex-spouse who was married at least 10 years may also draw benefits on your work record. Neither payment reduces the amount of your entitlement. If you have reached full retirement age and wish to continue working after your wife retires, you may apply for benefits and then have them suspended temporarily. This allows you to continue increasing your own benefit amount until age 70.

If an Army wife has an affair is she entitled to retirement benefits?

In general, an Army wife who has an affair may still be entitled to retirement benefits, as these benefits are typically based on the length of the marriage and the service member's years of service, not on the spouse's fidelity. However, the specific circumstances of the divorce, including state laws and the terms of the divorce settlement, can influence the division of assets and benefits. It's advisable for individuals in such situations to consult with a legal expert to understand their rights and options.
