I took 5 years off from working full-time to raise my child.

I have been of the belief that Social Security benefits are determined by taking the average income of all the years of employment.

My wife retired nine years ago at age 62. She has since become disabled. Can she file for disability benefits? If so, how does she go about it?

I get $13,000 a year Social Security Disability and have zero wages or income.

Is there a way to figure Social Security benefits if one doesn’t work until “normal” retirement age?

Can I receive benefits on my former husband’s record, even though he is still working?

I am in my early 20s and on Supplemental Security Income and Medicaid because I have been sick since I was 12. Now I am thinking about getting married

Is a person receiving Social Security Disability also entitled to receive half of the husband’s Social Security retirement? Do a disabled husband and wife have to pay federal or state tax?

Both of my parents won their disability hearings with social security. My dad filed for benefits a year before my mom did. He was awarded the maximum benefits allowed.

A family member is 18, a senior in high school, with a learning disability. We’ve been encouraged to apply for SSI, but there are financial assets in this person’s name.
