Providing Answers to Your Social Security Questions

The federal Social Security system is a complex government program that can be nearly impossible to navigate on your own. A growing number of people are not even sure if they can rely on Social Security benefits being available when they become eligible to receive them. The reality is that for those who have paid into the program throughout their working lives, Social Security benefits should be an important part of retirement planning. See: www.ssa.gov for more details

At The Divorce Financial Group, LLC, our CDFA™ can help you conduct a full review of your financial situation, including your eligibility for Social Security benefits. Most people who have worked throughout their lives will be eligible for benefits upon reaching retirement age based on their own work history. Spouses of working individuals may also be eligible to collect benefits. However, it often comes as a surprise to learn that even a divorced person may qualify for benefits based on their ex-spouse's eligibility, regardless of whether the ex-spouse ever applies.

There are many different strategies that can be utilized to get the most out of the Social Security system. We will help you determine which ones are right for you based on your specific circumstances.
