I divorced in April 2013 Does this change the social security benefit amount
Q) I divorced in April 2013. Does this change the social security benefit amount that I am presently collecting?
Thank you
A) Your benefits will continue if you get divorced and you are age 62 or older unless you were married less than 10 years.
If your marital status changes, you must let Social Security know. Please call them at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday or contact your local Social Security office.
I have a son, age 19, diagnosed with Autism at a young age. He has a caseworker through the Department of Human Services which has provided him with Medical Assistance health coverage. I was told by his case manager that now that he is 19 years old that he had to apply for Social Security. The case manager told me he will be denied, but that it was required of him to apply. I am trying to find out what form to file out in order for him to apply for Social Security benefits. Can someone please send me a link or directions on what form I need to fill out.
