When going through a divorce in California, one of the things you will have to discuss is the issue of social security benefits.

please watch the video below for full explanation.

Did you know that if you are married more than 10 years that you have rights to your spouse’s social security?  Furthermore, claiming your spouses social security does not impact them at all.  The amount of social security that your spouse receives is not reduced if you request to collect off of their social security benefits.

Another thing we discuss in this interview is that if you remarry and are married for less than 10 years you can go back to the prior spouse and again claim their social security.
