Did you know you may be eligible for Social Security spousal benefits even after divorce?
Many people don't realize they could be leaving money on the table!
Here's what you need to qualify for divorced spousal benefits:
✅ Your marriage lasted at least 10 years
✅ You're currently unmarried
✅ Your ex-spouse is 62+ and eligible for Social Security
✅ You're at least 62 years old
Important: Your ex doesn't even need to have filed yet (if you've been divorced 2+ years)! And they'll never know you claimed benefits on their record.
⚠️ If you remarried, you can't collect on your ex's record unless that marriage ended.

Chapter and its affiliates are not connected with or endorsed by any government entity or the federal Medicare program. Chapter Advisory, LLC represents Medicare Advantage HMO, PPO, and PFFS organizations and stand alone prescription drug plans that have a Medicare contract. Enrollment depends on the plan’s contract renewal. While we have a database of every Medicare plan nationwide and can help you to search among all plans, we have contracts with many but not all plans. As a result, we do not offer every plan available in your area. Currently we represent 50 organizations which offer 18,160 products nationwide. We search and recommend all plans, even those we don’t directly offer. You can contact a licensed Chapter agent to find out the number of products available in your specific area. Please contact Medicare.gov, 1-800-Medicare, or your local State Health Insurance Program (SHIP) to get information on all of your options.
