no....because most teachers pay only into TRS (Teacher Retirement System) and not into SS, they will receive their TRS only...the government stopped a loop hole back in 2004 for receiving TRS and SS, because the government considers it double-dipping...so if a spouse paid into SS, the teacher cannot get spousal benefits from the spouse because it would be considered double dipping...there is a small chance that the teacher would be eligible for a small amount of her spouse's SS, or even her own if she worked her 40 quarters before teaching, but the amount would be subject to two penalties called the GPO and Windfall...please check your local SS office on more of these two penalties.

Do New Mexico teachers pay social security taxes?

New Mexico public school teachers do not pay Social Security taxes on their earnings. Instead, they contribute to the New Mexico Educational Retirement Board (NMERB) retirement system, which provides retirement benefits for educators. This unique arrangement is due to the state's participation in the Public Employees Retirement System, which is designed to supplement retirement income instead of relying on Social Security. However, teachers who work in private schools or other sectors may still pay Social Security taxes.

Can you collect social security from PA paid while teaching there and Ohio teacher retirement money from teaching there?

Yes, you can. As you said, teachers in Ohio do NOT pay social security. Teachers in Pennsylvania DO pay social security. HOWEVER (and there is a big however), when you start to collect social security, you will take a hit from social security. This is called a Windfall Provision. Spousal benefits are also affected. With that said, PLEASE CONSULT YOUR ATTORNEY AND TAX ADVISOR. I am not an expert.
