Ask an Advisor: I’m a 61-year-old widow. Can I collect Social Security on my work record at 62 and then switch to my husband’s at his full retirement of 72?
Ask an Advisor: I was married for well over 10 years, and now divorced for just over 2 years. Can I collect on my spouse’s Social Security even if they are not?
