If you spouse and you apply at the same time or spouse is receiving benefits all ready, then we will automatically check your eligibility for benefits as a spouse.
Is there a maximum a family can get in benefits?
Yes, and the total depends on your spouse's benefits amount and the number of family members who would qualify on the same record; but generally the total amount the your spouse and family members can receive is about 150 to 180 percent of the worker's full retirement benefit.
Is there a way to find out about benefits if I was looking for my family?
