Marriage offers financial benefits, including spousal Social Security benefits, but some are lost after divorce. Ex-spouses can still claim Social Security benefits based on their former partner's work record if married for at least 10 years and not remarried. The benefit amount is half of the ex's entitlement at their full retirement age. Applying before your own full retirement age reduces benefits permanently. To apply, gather personal information and contact the Social Security Administration. It's crucial to understand your options for better retirement planning.
